+Graham Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 This weeks captures on the Meteor detector. Volume is starting to increase rapidly as we build up to the climax of the Perseid meteor shower on the night of August 12. +Ibbo, Bottletopburly and Al.Grant 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al.Grant Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Nice ? ... I was looking at the bits for my detector earlier this week and thinking that I really need to get it set up again - I must be a bit sad as I actually miss hearing those pings! I've got all the bits needed and I found my old config files. I now have a spare laptop I can use, which is the reason I had to take it down in the first place (Hd crashed_ All I should need to do is re-install spectrumlabs and plug the Funcube Pro+ dongle in, even my antenna is still up and ready to go. Hopefully I'll get some free time over the next few days and get it running. +Graham, Smithysteve and +Ibbo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great to compare details with someone else. 1 hour ago, Ibbo said: some very nice hits in that collection It is getting pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should get time to look at it early next week. I found an old thread on another forum where I'm talking about the settings I'm using in that script ..... I almost sound like I knew what I was doing! I've obviously forgotten lots in the past few years. Having looked at my old scripts and there is more going on in it than I currenly need and it's no wonder it kept driving me nuts.! < This might be asking too much of speclabs The antenna I have is a 5 element 2m Yagi that is currently on a pole on the side of the house but with nothing attached to the end of the cable. This thread and your meteor captures/updates has given me the kick I needed to get it running again ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Graham Posted August 3, 2019 Author Share Posted August 3, 2019 I know it is a quirky subject matter but if anyone is interested I am doing a month by month complete record of detected Meteor hits on my you tube channel. Smithysteve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
