Photos below show my attempt today to mount the array so that I can aim at Zenith and vary altitude between horizon and Zenith. I have yet to try it…
Successful detection of galactic atomic hydrogen in Milky Way using Ptarmigan Triffid Military Phased Array 21-22/9/23 in Lichfield, UK
I successfully detected hydrogen for first time using SDR, hydrogen HNA, pre-amp, DC block, and SDR# (using version of SDR# software provided in SARA Scope in a Box software package).…
Ptarmigan Triffid Military Phased Array Sept 2023
I have been given this incredible aerial/antenna this month – it a military phased array tuned to roughly the correct wavelength for hydrogen (1420MHz) with (I am told) a resolution…
Best astronomy images
Some of my favourite images taken by myself in Lichfield, UK, since I started astrophotography in late 2019 – combination solar, planetary and deep sky images.
