Just plugged in my homemade cantenna and the trace below on ezRA software suite (Ted Cline, https://github.com/tedcline/ezRA) immediately shows evidence of the hydrogen line – amazing how well an old…
So the orientation that I currently have my dishes in above is incorrect – I need to rotate the dishes on their tripods by 90 degrees so the long axis…
I have now successfully tested both of these dishes using ezRA suite software, RTL-SDR Blog V3 SDR and one x SAWBird hydrogen line filters/cascaded amplifier. Results of tests: Left dish:https://astronomy.me.uk/testing-left-nooelec-1-4ghz-mesh-60x100cm-dish…
I have now tested this aerial with RTL-SDR Blog V3 SDR and SAWBird H+ LNA – the graph below demonstrates successful data collection. Andy
I recently obtained these new encoders – brilliant idea for my Dobsonian telescope! Turn it into pushto GOTO. http://astronomy.me.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Geoptik-Nadirus-2BW-Instruction-Manual-Feb-2024-FULL-VERSION.pdf Andy
As part of my process for working out why I can’t get my interferometer, today I tested the right Nooelec 1.4GHz 60x100cm mesh dish. Results below = successful detection of…
At last I am having a go at making myself a Cantenna! If this works it will demonstrate that I can make a full hydrogen line radio telescope for <…
Unfortunately, I still can’t get my 1420MHz interferometer to work. Have received 2 excellent pieces of advice from Jan Lustrip and Mike Otte, pasted below – today I have made…
Click on link to read results of tests I conducted this evening that show that my Interferometer Computer Box 1-2m away from my Ptarmigan Array Computer Box significantly interferes with…
