Re: Calibration curve using RSP1B

Alfi Your calibration looks great Alfi.? Raising the dB threshold to -140 makes senes as that matches the receiver noise floor. Thanks. Larry K4LED

Dear Alfi and Larry, and all,
?
? Thanks for the great information. Alfi, your calibration curve looks excellent, and I will try
those settings for my backyard setup.

? To be clear, calibration is a very useful way to make your data more scientific. It allows you to determine
a background level for your observing site (i.e., how radio quiet is your site). Also, your data can then be
directly compared with data from other observers. This is an advanced project, but a worthy one. We are
hear to help you, so please ask questions.
?
? For those interested in a calibrator, we have plans to build-it-yourself. See the
Wiki page:?

Happy Observing!

I would also like to show the calibration results with RSP1B receiver and Jovecal 1, I think the results can be considered linear. Hopefully the settings I gave look correct.
