Re: 02 April 2025 Some solar plus more Jupiter-Io
Howdy Richard,
A wonderful collection of captures from yesterday. I may have gotten some of the non-Io A, right around the same timeframe, but I'm honestly not sure if this is Jupiter or just RFI. If you have thoughts on whether this fits or not, I'd love to know.? ?

02 April 2025 Some solar plus more Jupiter-Io
Hi Folks,?
?
Here are some more spectrograms featuring solar bursts from 02 April 2025, most of which were posted by other observers.? Some of these also show Io-B emission.? In addition, the last three (spectrograms G, H, and I) show non-Io-A emission.

02 April 2025 Solar 14h00 - 18h00 A few peculiar solar(?) bursts
Here are some spectrograms of solar bursts on April 02 2025.? Some of these look pretty normal, but some look unusual.? Take a look at the last spectrogram between 17:26 and 17:36.? There are a number of emission "events" which are fairly narrow-band, but do not appear like normal human-caused RFI.? These events can be seen in both polarization channels, and so are presumably not Jupiter-Io.? Did anyone else see these features?

02 April 2025: Jupiter and Solar at the same time!!
Hi All,
?
Thanks for the head's up to all who posted those very nice images of solar on April 02.? Going over the data from our Dark Sky Observatory TFD4 array, I ran across this very nice combination of Io-B and a Type III solar burst, all within a few minutes of each other!
?
I will be posting some more images later.

Re: New dual dipole array in Maryland
Thanks Carl!? Thanks Sabine!? Sabine, thank you for the tips on automation, we¡¯ll give those options a go.? I¡¯ll try to post a picture of the setup soon. ? We went with the standard setup in the kit instructions, east/west orientation.? Location is a small town in a more rural part of Maryland called Finksburg.? We also plan to try activating the server function in RSS in case folks want to observe remotely. Tyson On Thu, Apr 3, 2025 at 10:11?AM Sabine Cremer via <sc=[email protected]> wrote:

These overload conditions occur in most ADCs when the magnitude exceeds 0 dBm. Usually, it's not even individual narrowband signals that trigger this, but rather the sum of several high-field signals when there's a lot of power across the entire spectrum, as was the case during the contest. The ADC could certainly be damaged at some point, but I hope the hardware contains mitigating measures.

Tyson,

that really looks great!

?
It appears that there is a file size limit at 2 GB. Jim describes one way to automatically record data here ("Run Timed Observation" from the "File" menue):
?
Another way is "File/Run From Schedule File". You'll find the description of the .skd file in RSS' Help file.
?
Do you have a photo of your new location/antenna?

New dual dipole array in Maryland
Hi all, Jack Ganssle and I were able to setup a dual dipole kit about an hour northeast from the Mills Cross Array historical site, far enough from Washington, D.C. and Baltimore for reduced interference. ? Attached is a shot of a recent observation.? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. We ran into a file size limit in Radio Sky Spectrograph with an initial dataset.? The file was 2GB total. What is the file size limit and is there a way to automate stop/start for file creation in RSS? Thanks so much! Tyson |
