Solar event?? 13 May 2025, Prospect, Maine

I pass along for whatever it's worth... (1) Did not have my "jove" receiver on today because I had to disconnect the antenna for Spring field maintenance. (2) My wife was watching the local broadcast TV news on channel 5, 76 to 82 Mhz. (Yes, we still use over-the-air TV!) about 1700 EDT or 2100 UTC. (3) She ask what the Sun was doing and I replied I had no idea, "Why?" (4) She said the signal was frequently very pixilated and for seconds at a time would go completely black. We are about 40 miles as the crow flies from the xmitter. (5) She wondered if solar activity might be causing this? This is not the first time she has commented on "interrupted" TV reception. Anyway....fun with radio.....bill...

Thanks for the alert or this would have gone by my active window. I happened to have a 3-element Yagi pointed directly upward to catch Cass and Cyg on 144.070 MHz. Nothing "magic" about that frequency other than the antenna was optimized for the low end of 2-meters. Here is the X-1.2 flare at 144.070 MHz. Nothing is calibrated, so don't make any conclusions regarding specific peak levels. The sun is not boresighted, but a 3-element frontal lobe isn't that sharp. -- Dave - W?LEV

Good evening: Some solar from today. John

Good Day All, My absence in the group was due to a medical issue in the household, all good now, and my laptop. My HP Business Pro Laptop, that I run PRJ, Stanford SID and NASA Inspire v3, took a meltdown as the fan, heat exchanger, and most of the CPU and ram was in the grave. It took me almost a week to baby it to transfer 2.2 TB of data, order a new laptop and have it delivered and set up. Bear in mind, I have not turned off the laptop, except for the occasional power outages, for over 12 years.... On that note.... I am now using the SDRConsole method of gathering data. Still tweaking the setting to get satisfactory results for my location. The PRJ v2 default settings are blasting it with high RFI/Gain overload. Will keep everyone posted.... And some small solar from yesterday's data set? Maybe.. Carl Wasilla, AK USA

Thanks to John and Duane for the heads up. Nice solar today. Here are the best bursts. Richard

Good evening again: IoB from today. Included both solar and IoB in last panel. John
|

Hi All, You have to look very closely at this spectrogram. There is some very faint non-Io-A hiding there. Richard
|
|
Hi All, Remarkably, some Io-B was visible today in addition to the nice solar (next message). Richard

Good evening: This is more like it! Great solar from today. Thanks to Salvador and Duane for the heads-up. John
