by what time we can hear these burst phases from our set up?
which is the next pridicted date for these events to occur(solar and jupiter
burst)and at what time it will happen?
how to pridict these dates astronomically?
Greetings!
Goodevening sir, i have downloaded the software radio skypipe II, when i press
the start chart button it starts printing the chart without any antenna
connection to it and anything else, how is this happening without any
connection?
Is it due to inbuilted sound card in laptop?
Is there any way to stop our software from printing charts till we connect
antenna to it?
Can you send me some end results from which i can predict that software is
working properly with the antenna?
OR
The variations that comes just after connecting the antenna to the laptop which
shows the antenna is properly connected and software is showing the variation
due to radio signals?
Hi Jim, Dave
yes Jim's quite right, it is possible to put two time series onto
the one time axis with excel - if Dave wants to know the detail on how
to do this he is welcome to email me.
But I suspect that Dave is interested in having having two traces
from different observatories running in the same skypipe window
concurrently. At real time. I am unaware as to whether this is
possible, but it seems to me that the display mechanics in skypipe are
clearly there already - for not only two channels but a number of
channels can be displayed in real time together. What the coding
difficulties are in effectively running RSP in client mode and
stand-alone mode (eg) - at the same time - I am unsure. But if anybody
could bring such a worthwhile project to fruition it would surely be
Jim Sky - he is not only The skypipe guru - he is the creator as well.
Steve
excel is dreadfully complicated,
I do not recommend it to anybody

same then you need to add points to the chart with the least samples.
It is ugly.
I may still try to do this though. It is probably the most often
requested feature we do not have (besides streaming audio).

DARPA is a serious military research institute that is exploring how to collect information from public networks. They offer a nice prize to the first person/group who reports locations of 10 red, tethered weather balloons that they put up this morning.
"As you might have heard, DARPA has announced a network challenge in the vein of the DARPA Grand Challenge. In this challenge, participants are tasked with finding 10 red weather balloons distributed throughout the continental US for 8 hours on December 5. The idea is to get this to be a crowd-sourcing kind of activity, where people will use social media tools to solve this problem..."
If you'd like to cooperate in finding the balloons and get a share of the $40,000 reward, you can join the search here. You can add your name and get your own link to share with friends, or you can share this link. If we win anything, it will buy pizza and beer for folks at the SARA Western Conference -- anything left goes to the treasury. If you have any links to amateur radio operator nets, you might want to email them our address.
During my night time observation when Jupiter was out of my antenna range & at horizon, I got some unexpected rising in signal chart.Please find here with the same.I do not know what it shows as there was no interference or surge in voltage.
Dear sir, actually i am done with my setup of radio receiver and antenna setup too, i want to ask you about the radio sky pipe software that how we can use it and what all are the settings in it that we have to optimize with our receiver and antenna?
Basically how to operate radio sky pipe software step by step with our set up and before set up what shoul be the settings?
Please revert back to me with the steps of operating the software so that i can proceed further as soon as possible.
thank you sir akhil chopra

Dear Mr. Chopra,
I encourage you to become a member of the Radio Jove Technical and General email lists, and participate in our discussions.
Does there exist a utility to merge two or more charts such that they show
up as different channels within the same SPD file?
Assuming observer's clocks are accurate to better than a second, and
assuming both charts were generated with the same sampling rate, they should
be easy to merge. Well, not impossible.
This would be useful when comparing charts from different observers. The
post-processing equation functionality could then be used to compare the two
original datasets.
Anyway, I was thinking about writing such a utility, but I figured I may as
well ask beforehand as I cannot be the first person to have thought of this.

hello sir,how r u?i hope u r fine ....i m fine too except my semester
examinations are starting and i m not at all prepared.i m engaged in
promoting radio astronomy..
sir since past two months we have been promoting RADIO JOVE among two
hundred students all over delhi..around 20 seminars and workshops have
been organised all over delhi on RADIO ASTRONOMY..by S.P.A.C.E.
S.P.A.C.E(Science popularisation association of commutators and
educators)has sincerly work in this field with aim to promote radio
astronomy among school and college students...i have also been a
student who learnt radio astronomy from S.P.A.C.E
We want Radio Jove and Astronomy to be popular so that we can send u
data from different parts of INDIA..i would be very thankful if you
will help S.P.A.C.E by advisng us various methods to popularise RADIO
ASTRONOMY..our CEO Mr Sachin Bhamba is working for a revolution in this
field of Astronomy and science popularisation in india.his contact
number is 9818477797 and email id is sachin@... are
some of our pics of the radio jove set up.......i would be very
thankful if u suggest us ideas for promoting RADIO ASTRONOMY and Radio
jove so that we can collect data from all over india and more and more
students are involved in the NASA RADIO JOVE PROJECT
thanking u
with regards

Dear Mr. Sharma,
I am doing very well, thank you.
I copy Mr Sachin Bhamba <sachin@...> of the S.P.A.C.E organization, and the Radio Jove Technical email list.
We need the assistance of all Radio Jove Participants.
I congratulate you for your enthusiasm in studying and promoting Radio Astronomy.
Re: my semester examinations are starting and i m not at all prepared.i m engaged in promoting radio astronomy.
You must give priority to preparation for your examinations, study well Mathematics and Physics. You will need them to pursue a career in any area of Science and Technology, including Astronomy and Radio Astronomy. Achieve high grades in your examinations.
Re: suggest us ideas for promoting RADIO ASTRONOMY and Radio jove
Ask questions and participate in discussions in the RJ Technical list, you will learn a lot. I do !
Google the words "radio astronomy", I find over 6 million hits. There is a lot to read !! Learning about Astronomy has kept me busy for more than half a century.
Visit schools and talk about Science, Technology, Astronomy and Radio Astronomy. Radio Astronomy is part of Astronomy.
I suggest that you write a brief article for the Radio Jove Bulletin, describing your activities. I believe Dr. Leonard Garcia, Editor of the Bulletin, will be interested.
Hi Victor, John - Here is a chart overlay with John's and my charts from 02 Dec. I do not have an audio recording of the times in question.
Although there seems to be some correlation at certain times, my chart for at least an hour before and after looks very similar and shows what I think are random noise pulses. However, statistical analysis of the raw SPD files may show something. Victor - what do you think?
Happy listening, and watching!

Solar type III bursts and a Jovian Io-C event, observed from Earth and Space, December 1 2009
STEREO WAVES A and B recorded an initial type III burst, followed by 3 weak low frequency bursts, 2130 to 2300 UT, 200 Khz to 10 Mhz band.
They were followed by an Io-C event, near 23 UT, terrestrial ephemeris CML 356d Phase 261d, 3 to 16 Mhz:
We should not expect a close correlation, because of the long distances between the Earth and the STEREO Observatories, in excess of 100 million kilometers.
I would like to collaborate in a closer study of the observations, and perhaps write a short Bulletin article with any interested participants.
I spent a moment processing my audio files from the December 2, 2009,
daytime Io-B period.
There is positive Jupiter at the times noted on observer's charts. I
have posted a one minute .mp3 sound file of the 2219 UT minute at 21.1
MHz ( file is less than a 1 MB in size).
http://www.heliotown.com/jIoB20091202_2219ut21MHzAsh.mp3
I also posted a file of what I believe to be "false Jupiter" that sounds
a great deal like Jovian emission but I believe it is an unclear
interference-like voice transmission. This is why it is sometimes hard
to verify Jupiter during the daytime ( and nighttime ! ) without
correlation from other observers.
Is it Jupiter?
http://www.heliotown.com/INT_20091202_2140ut.mp3
In any case, it is very neat to receive Jupiter at 3 pm in the
afternoon! Quite amazing.

John -
Didn't see much here due to a passing storm front. Decent temporal
correlation looking at the chart minima instead of the peaks. PNG attached.

Monitored for Io-B 2118 - 2308 UT. Good storm. Some interference from "sweepers", but lots of strong "spitting S" Jovian bursts. Attached JPEG covers strongest period 2145 - 2225 UT (CML=107* - 122*/Io Phase=95* - 99*).

stuff actually.

Wow, John, you're really pulling it in. I looked at my chart and thought,
"Oh well, just local interference."
For comparison, my chart for the same time period attached.

Picked up a bit of Io-C today.
First period of (weak) activity: 2114 - 2136 UT (CML=296*-303* &
Phase=247*-248*).
Chart attached for second period of stronger activity 2210 - 2240 UT
(CML=327*-346* & Phase=254*-259*). Some interference from "sweepers" etc,
but
fairly good Io - aurally mostly "L" & some "S" bursts.

It does not appear to confirm the May 8 2009 Solar Cycle Prediction Panel consensus prediction. So far, the trend is well below the prediction, and way off the April 2007 predictions: http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/SolarCycle/SC24/index.html
