The S300N, which supports multistream VCM and Input Stream Identifier (ISI) filtering, is fully qualified to receive the US National Weather Service next generation NOAAPORT DVB-S2 weather service data. Low cost, small form factor and high reliability combine to make this the perfect receiver for your weather data needs.
If you already own an S300N, you can find S300N configuration GUI updates, access to our Novra Central Management and Control Software (CMCS) tool and NOAA-specific S300 configuration files on our Support Page.
Novra’s S300 DVB-S2 Data receiver extends the performance of the S200 DVB-S2 Data receiver by enabling operation up to 32 APSK with multistream VCM support and by providing enhanced video handling capabilities.
