Shows some hydrogen – need to complete full 24 hours and re-analyse. Note altitude and azimuth may be incorrect in these plots.
Unfortunately, these do not seem to be able to be processed in ezRA. GRC file used for data collection below (GNU Radio Companion File): https://www.astronomy.me.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/ezColGR251018eA-AT201025@2240.zip Data Files created by above…
https://www.astronomy.me.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/DSES251016_10.txt Not worked! This first attempt to generate GNU Radio Companion GRC script with SDRplay RSPduo SDR which creates data files in ezRA’s ezCol.py .txt format does not appear to…
I am just about to use the following file on the Solar Cooker Radio Telescope (LRO-H2) as part of a test of a system to collect data in ezCol .txt…
Andrew, if you Really want to do this you need to be Meticulous in Matching and Verifying Each feed system. It takes time & effort. 1) You MUST use software…
At last! Go this 2nd monopole installed on the cantenna at 90 degrees to first – so now I can collect vertically and horizontally polarised 1420 MHz data – given…
Great question — this gets into radiometer theory and feed design. If you add a second probe into your WR-650 feed at 1420 MHz, what happens depends on how you…
