I too am a bit of a Radio Astronomy enthusiast but have found that people tune out (no pun intended) whenever the subject is raised.

Our Clubsite will have a NASA Radio Jove setup in the very near future.

That is cool, I knew there was a few people online interested. I may put it to the committee to place a Jupiter set-up at one of the DSO sites. Will try to configure it properly too.

The system runs on so little power that it could easily run off a small solar, left mine switched on 80AH battery 2 nights ago and forgot to switch it off. Still running this morning. The only issue would be IP connectivity.

BTW I managed to get some sound and visual from a dipole and incorporated images from a program call Spectrum Lab.

First sound file RAW - http://www.waelect.com.au/mswhin63ap...1_portion2.wav
Second file using artificial uncalibrated noise reduction - http://www.waelect.com.au/mswhin63ap...1_portion3.wav
Third file waterfall - http://www.waelect.com.au/mswhin63ap/sounds/capt00.jpg
Fourth file 3D - http://www.waelect.com.au/mswhin63ap/sounds/capt01.jpg

Nothing at the moment is calibrated.
