Re: Io-A May 1, 2025 Dark Sky Observatory
Hello Everyone, A little help please.? Still a newbie.? My system is working, I have been getting solar flares, but still trying to get some?good Jupiter readings.? I monitored Io-A today and looking over what Richard found the best I?have is this match with his 21:09 readings (see attached).? Mine are dark spikes however.? Thoughts?? And if it's not - what am I missing?? Also attached a reading at 20:22:14 which is different, but haven't encountered this before.
Setup is a 10 foot dual dipole.? No phasing.? Graph is attached Appreciate it. Thanks- Peter
We saw a lot of Io-A this afternoon, but much of it was very faint.? I have posted the best bits from the RCP channel.

That is reassuring, Larry.? Fascinating how the brain processes visual information.? My guess is that the brain is looking for a boundary and keeps failing to predict where it is.

Jim Sky, I can?see some?movement also?Jim. I think it must be our pupils?are constricting from the bright light area msking the illusion of movement?
Congratulations?Duane.? A little off subject, but when I stare at the big solar burst,? I get an optical illusion where it looks like the light area is continually shrinking.? Does anyone else see that or should I get my meds checked?
Jim?
Observations from Grafton, WV.
Caught two solar and one that looks like Jupiter? What do y'all think of
the Jupiter one?
Thanks,

Re: Welcome to Radio JOVE 2.0
Leonardo, You can download the suggested Radio. JOVE antenna construction manual at the ?link below. We sell a kit of parts. Or you can buy the materials?at your location.?
I suggest you study the Radio JOVE web site at this link.?
Feel free to ask any questions here.? Thanks,

Great spectrograms as always, Richard.
Just imagine what you could to with an 8-element array. ;)

Thanks to Tom for the head's up.? We picked up some Jupiter-Io emissions today, right on the border between Io-A and non-Io-A.? I think it would have been a nice display if viewed through the nighttime ionosphere.? See attached.? The first shows the full "storm", the others show the details.

When I got my new laptop, I used a new procedure that I saw on the website and it used SDR Console. I used to use an older procedure with SDRUno.
With the newer procedure it seemed as though I was getting so much signal in that it was swamping everything out. When I used the older method with SDR Uno, I seemed to get something. I could see sweepers and signals from someone that had a Ham setup not far from me.?
It will take me a few days to get the cables and connectors checked out. I will get back to you when I do.
Thanks for the help,

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.

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
