Dear SEARFE team,
Tests to determine where to site the Discone antenna
have been completed, but the actual antenna is yet to
be mounted. While we are waiting for the handyman to
mount it (nothing has happened for 2 weeks), we have
decided to start some scans. The initial results were
interesting. We began with one from 1 to 2000 MHz and
have found a very strong emission at approximately
1645 MHz, stronger than any of the radio stations from
88 to 110MHz. On a closer examination (a scan from
1640 to 1650 MHz), this turned out to be 2 different
spikes (on the intensity against frequency line
graph). We are yet to determine the source of this
radiation. Do you know of any website that gives data
on radio interference frequencies around Narrabri?
There is one other question: how do you put the data
on the internet? There is no CD writing program on the
laptop to control the provided CD burner, and the
staff here would prefer not to directly connect it to
the internet. The only way we can think of is to
connect the laptop to a printer, print the plots, and
scan them. Is there a simpler way than this?
That is all for now,
Narrabri High SEARFE team
(Vikram Ravi and James Tolson)
