HF receiver + laptop + software = weather maps?
try wxsat (search for wxsat) for freeware - no frills and it does the job for weatherfax and satellite imaging. If you have an extension speaker out jack on your receiver it will plug directly into the microphone connection on your laptop to the soundcard. This is a $3 solution to the demodulator problem.

I have no problems downloading weatherfax with this arrangement. Also, there are enough hams out there that can answer any tech questions you have. Try qrz.com.
