Dear Radio JOVE Community, The Radio JOVE Project is a NASA Partner citizen science project where participants purchase, assemble, and operate their own 16-24 MHz radio spectrograph to observe solar, Jupiter, Galactic, and Earth-based radio emissions. Learn to become a citizen scientist and contribute scientific-quality data to our data archive. Visit Getting Started to learn how to participate in Radio JOVE. Regards, The Radio JOVE Team

Calibration curve using RSP1B
5
Hi folks, I too am having trouble getting a good Cal curve. Using the standard Radio JOVE setup with the RSP1B receiver. I managed to get a decent Cal curve using these settings: RF Gain = 9 IF Gain = -45dB Visual Gain = -40 dB SDRc2RSS Gain = 2.0 Not quite linear, but not too bad. I did not adjust the Visual Gain per Richard¡¯s comment below, but maybe I don¡¯t understand it either. See screenshot below. Chuck

Here are some views of the fantastic solar earlier today from the Dark Sky Observatory. The first shows the entire "storm", and the remaining spectrographs show some of the details. Richard

The FFT and nuclear weapons
2
Here's a very interesting explanation of how and why the modern FFT came to exist in the 1960s, then we discover that Gauss had already invented it, but never published it. Veritasium - The Most Important Algorithm of All Time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmgFG7PUHfo -- Dave

Solar Events 19 May 2025, Prospect, ME
Good evening....two weak events....maybe A lot of strong, local lightning recently. Off-topic...many evenings after submitting an events' report I'll turn on my ham radio and spend some time using FT-8 (digital mode) on the various bands starting at 10m (28.0 Mhz) then 12 m (24.9 Mhz), 15m (21.0 Mhz),....18Mhz, 14Mhz...down to 3.6Mhz. The last few evenings here from 28 to 18 Mhz I have heard & contacted almost no stations ANYWHERE....quite unusual. Fun with radio.

Update to "RX888 On SDR Console, SDRc2RSS", and RSS Documentation
FYI The 1/29/2025 pdf document "RX888 On SDR Console, SDRc2RSS and RSS" was updated 5/17/2025 and is attached below. The Chinese RX888/RX888 MKII is fabricated by several different manufacturers in China. Some are just clones or redesigned SDRs. A totally new design is in progress to correct known issues such as overheating, PCB runs too close together, and other design issues, etc. As with some eBay items, you never know what your going to get. The RX888/RX888 MKII as well as other SDRs may be used with SDR Console and SDRc2RSS and RSS on an experimental basis. The RSP1B calibration process can only be used as a guide. Calibration accuracy cannot be guaranteed. For an accurately calibrated spectrograph the Radio JOVE supported SDRplay RSP1 or RSP1B are suggested. Thank you.

Solar SID 05/15/2025 Easley, South Carolina

Good evening: Solar from today. I am calling the first two captures a SID. However, the margins of signal drop-out are quite distinct, leaning me away from calling it a SID. Did anyone else see it? John
