+This fork of [rs1279's RS](https://github.com/rs1729/RS) codebase provides a set of utilities ('auto_rx') to allow automatic reception and uploading of [Radiosonde](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiosonde) positions to multiple services, including:
 
 * The [SondeHub Radiosonde Tracker](https://tracker.sondehub.org) - a tracking website specifically designed for tracking radiosondes!
-
 * APRS-IS (for display on sites such as [radiosondy.info](https://radiosondy.info) and [aprs.fi](https://aprs.fi)
-
 * [ChaseMapper](https://github.com/projecthorus/chasemapper) for mobile
   radiosonde chasing.
 
-There is also a web interface available on http://localhost:5000 ,
-allowing display of station status and basic tracking of the sonde
-position.
+Auto-RX's [Web Interface](https://github.com/projecthorus/radiosonde_auto_rx/wiki/Web-Interface-Guide) provides a way of seeing the live status of your station, and also a means of reviewing and analysing previous radiosonde flights. Collected meteorological data can be plotted in the common 'Skew-T' format.
 
-Currently we support the following radiosonde types:
-* Vaisala RS92
-* Vaisala RS41
-* Graw DFM06/DFM09/DFM17/PS-15
-* Meteomodem M10 & M20
-* Intermet iMet-4 (and 'narrowband' iMet-1 sondes)
-* Intermet iMet-54
-* Lockheed Martin LMS6 (400 MHz and 1680 MHz variants, including the new 'LMS-X' unreleased type)
-* Meisei iMS-100
-* Meteo-Radiy MRZ (400 MHz versions)
+### Radiosonde Support Matrix
 
-Support for other radiosondes may be added as required (please send us
-sondes to test with!)

-This software performs the following steps:
+Support for other radiosondes may be added as required - please send us sondes to test with! If you have any information about telemetry formats, we'd love to hear from you (see our contact details below).
 
-1. Use rtl_power to scan across a user-defined frequency range, and
-   detect peaks in the spectrum.
+Improvements from the upstream RS codebase will be merged into this codebase when/where appropriate. A big thanks to rs1729 for continuing to develop and improve these decoders, and working with us to make auto_rx decode *all* the radiosondes!
 
-2. For each detected peak frequency, run the rs_detect utility, which
-   determines if a radiosonde signal is present, and what type it is.
+### Updates
 
-3. If a radiosonde signal is found, start demodulating it, and upload
-   data to various internet services.
+**This software is under regular development. Please [update regularly](https://github.com/projecthorus/radiosonde_auto_rx/wiki/Performing-Updates) to get bug-fixes and improvements!**
 
-4. If no peaks are found, or if no packets are heard from the
-   radiosonde in a given amount of time (2 minutes by default), go back
-   to step 1.
+Please consider joining the Google Group to receive updates on new software features:
+https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/radiosonde_auto_rx
 
-The latest version can make use of multiple RTLSDRs to allow for
-tracking of many radiosondes simultaneously. The number of
-simultaneous radiosondes you can track is limited only by the number
-of RTLSDRs you have setup!
