Observations from Grafton, WV.
One weak solar and one of lightning. The lightning was just to the north of me and I was only seeing about 1/4 of what is shown in the spectrogram. So does that mean 3/4 stayed in the clouds? I took a similar spectrogram up to the weather students at West Virginia University and asked them. They were baffled and amazed that I could do something like that. Any one here know a lightning expert I could get in touch with??
Thanks,
~Duane

Jeff: ? ? ?That all sounds great. You did say that you used console? May I suggest starting from scratch once your assembly is complete. Please keep me posted. We can ask for additional help along the way if needed.

Thanks for the reply.?
My set up a dual dipole. I live at 51 north so my antennas are about 18¡¯ off the ground. They are in an east/west orientation. I have a phasing cable (I think it was 90 degree) in the south antenna feed line. They go into the combiner and then to the receiver. I am using a RSP1A. All the supplies were bought from the RadioJove website.?
It isn¡¯t back up yet. I wanted to have a look at all the connections again before I get things back in the air.?
I followed the instructions from RadioJove.

I haven¡¯t been able to get ANYTHING, period. Since I put up my antenna about 1 1/2 YEARS ago, I think I have gotten solar two days! I bought a detected laptop for it and using the SRD Radio console, I get nothing. I got those few days of signals with the previous method not using SRD console, but I haven¡¯t tried on my new laptop. I went back to my old laptop and the older method and I get nothing on it now. I had to take my antennas down to do some spring yard clean up and I am wondering if I should even bother putting it up again??? Whether it be RFI, my location, my construction of the antenna (I had a 34 year career in electronics and had dealings with radios and antennas, so I am not new with them), I haven¡¯t been able to get things working as the regular posters here do.?
You are not empty handed.
