SID monitoring recording on Radio Sky Pipe II
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDoes anyone else use Radio Sky Pipe for recording output of UKRAA SID monitors? If so, how long an integration time do you use? I was using 5 seconds but still quite noisy. Should I use 10 secs or even 30 secs? ? Andy |
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAndy analogue filtering needs to be quite slow to remove that kind of noise. In the 2000s I was doing similar recording on 136kHz, and most of the noise was distant lightning. I chose to take 6 readings at 2 sec intervals and only save the lowest which became the reading for the mid point of the 6 readings. This was based on the idea that there may be gaps between the strikes. However ideally the filtering before digitisation should not be too narrow because that will spread the width of the pulses. This is not usually provided as a filter so you may need to experiment with you receiver and software to use it. I found RSP only provided averaging which is not the best solution.Best Wishes Alan G3NYK On 20/05/2025 22:08, Andrew Thornett
