Good times, I've done this with DWD (German meteorological service) in the 90s, using HamComm [0]

This project in the article however, listens directly to satellites, and not to a LF/HF ground-based station like we used to do.

Oops, lost my memory there for a bit: it was probably using the same DIY "Hamcomm modem", and using JVFAX (or similar) software running under DOS.
