Could not get LED on Nooelec LANA (low noise amplifier) to light up with bias tee - what was wrong?

Scratching my head this evening – until I found out that the male-male SMA connector I was using had female rather than male members (but did have the outer ring expected of male SMA connectors…)!! A hermaphrodite SMA-SMA connector in fact! Finding one with the usually gender change members worked instantly!!

Re: Leonids

I heard a nice long ping early this morning on 87.7 Mhz, sounded like Sweden coming in. Perhaps it was a long Leonid. First time I've heard anything at all overnight on the Sony HiFi and telescopic antenna for a long time.

Radio Astronomy Buy and Sell

 

开云体育

Hi All,

I'd like to make a suggestion = would it be possible to set up a buy and sell classified section for the group? Short of eBay, I don't know of any good places to buy stuff for radio astronomy and I think it would be popular amongst members.

BW,

Andy

Live observations of radio meteor counts, sudden ionospheric disturbance detections and magnetometer measurements can now be viewed on my website?

Hi

I’ve uploaded this presentation that I gave on 13/1123 to my website – link below if you want to look at it again for any reason.

My personal email is andrew@... and my phone number +447770841767 in case anyone wishes to discuss it further. I am not an expert on radios or electronics but if you want an idiot’s guide to getting started then I am your man/idiot!

?

NB Feedback and constructive criticism is always welcome so feel free to send it to me or post comments on my website!!

?

For SARA Members – I am also posting this on the SARA group as I discovered at BAA on 13/11/23 that there are a lot of people out there who are interested in doing similar things and value a little confidence booster to get started!

Grindavik TFK

 

开云体育

TFK (37.5kHz) went off air at 23:38 last night presumably because Grindavik nearby was also evacuated last night

in fear of a volcanic eruption. They've had thousands of earthquakes in the past few days and they are showing a magma dike

intrusion that goes right by the transmitter!
