Thanks! I've seen the info on rtl-sdr. This very satellite originally got me into the hobby, so it's quite sad to see it's retiring. The whole satellite group has served well beyond its estimates. The end of an era.

Is there a way to display some text when pressing on NOAA 18? So for example when you press NOAA 18 there will be a popup saying "NOAA 18 has sadly shutdown on the 6th of July 2025"?
