Hallo,

ich habe gerade mein System Blue bekommen. Nun geht es ans Antennen bauen.
Kann mir jemand mitteilen, wie ich einen anderen Kern bewickeln muss ?
Angegeben im Beispiel ist ja ein B64290L0044X830 12,5mm
ich habe einige B64290L0632X830 20mm
Beide sind vom Material N30 Al ist aber 4160 nH (2200 nH)

Wie sind die Wickeldaten ? auch 50 Windungen?

Über eine kurze Info wäre ich dankbar.

Today suddenly firefox started reporting:

P.S.
Yes my computer time & time zone was verified and sync'd

P.S.S.
Additionally Internet explorer also displays the same error but allows to continue with error, Chrome does not show the error but also does show location.

When I am looking at the lightning data on the web, what do the green lines mean that flash up when a lightning strike is detected? Am very interested in this area of weather and am thinking about looking into getting a detector and becoming part of the service, if that is available.

Thanks

Jay

how do I change from gren stations to blue in he stations list

Hi all,

A few notes on the integration approach I used for System Blue - congrats to the team for a great solution with some powerful/easy to use built-in tools to get up and running quickly (particularly the Signals page with noise floor checkbox/noise floor p-p measurements)

H-field:

Started with manual control and E-field input disabled - gain at minimum on 1A and 1B (no 1C connected). Gradually increased the gain while finding optimum antenna placement, rotating the antenna to identify directions of noise sources. After some time I found a location where the noise spikes on the red channel were the only real interference - based on other postings I understand these are generated by the controller and were significantly improved by switching off the HP filter. During early testing I was plagued by significant interference at 120/s (related to TV/dimmer switch 60Hz) but only in the relatively near field.

E-field:

Same approach - manual control with H-field inputs disabled - gain at minimum on 2A. Gradually increased gain while finding a relatively quiet place for the antenna. Grounding the controller board to electrical ground (copper water pipe) improved performance, but the biggest gain was realized by using a dedicated copper grounding rod pushed into the ground.

A couple of questions:

1. I notice that running in Automatic mode dials back the gains significantly from what I can accomplish in manual mode with minimal interference. This is the opposite of what I found during early testing, where the system would get caught in a cycle of automatically increasing gain until it entered interference mode, and then significantly back off the gain (repeats). I assumed that the goal would be to get the max sensitivity from all stations without entering interference mode, but this does not appear to be the case (perhaps based on the increased density of stations)? What is the goal of the algorithm?

2. During testing I had a number of occasions where the controller would stop responding - seemingly related to burst mode interference. External pings would fail, the GPS LED would extinguish and the network LED would remain on despite the network cable being unplugged. Although the problem does not appear to occur during normal (non-interference) operation, I would have expected the watchdog to restart the controller in this scenario. Any ideas for further troubleshooting?

Thanks,
Peter

Hello everyone, 

I just got my system blue built last week and powered up. It has been running fine as far as I can tell. I was just looking at my network switch and noticed that the port it is plugged into is only running at 10mb half duplex and is throwing some CRC and late collision errors on that port. I tested the cable run between the switch and the detector and it checked out. Does it sound like I may have done a bad solder job on the nic?

Thanks!
Jeff

Hello,

I ordered the shopping cart from reichelt.de. But the items "SMA panel jack, angled, solder pins" and "Modular panel jack 8/8, shielded"
did'nt fit on the PCB. The SMA panel jack is to short for the case and the 8/8 Modular jack has a different pin layout (The images in the shop shows
the right item. But they deliver a slightly different item.).

Does anyone know of a shop (maybe from Germany) where I get the matching components?


Thanks!
Dirk

Hello all.  Currently searching the site for the correct thread, but while I read and search. . .
1. I live in Northern New York - on a military base
2. I am a radio operator KE7WWT
3. I run a personal weather station KNYCALCI2
4.  Looking for a prebuild detector  - - - any available?

Hello to all. Yesterday (09/09/2016) a lot of stikes appears on South Pelloponese in Greece that the satellite images shows no clouds there. Could anyone tell us what happened there?
Is there any explanation or it is just false positive.
Thanks in advance...

P.S. The specific time is 18:00 - 19:00 UTC
