Hi Marcus, Brilliant. I am in the middle of assembling my own radio telescope, but had not thought Pulsar reception would be possible.
I have a couple of questions on the RF Hardware. I see from some other updates, that the antenna is essentially sets of a 4 bay HDTV antenna. How are you phasing them all together ? Just additive combiners with same length coax ? What amplification are you using before feeding them to the SDR ? Or ? Best Regards Iain On 01/12/16 18:45, Marcus D. Leech wrote:
One of the many goals we set for ourselves at the Canadian Centre for Experimental Radio Astronomy was to successfully observe pulsar B0329+54 before spring. This pulsar is the only one bright enough for a small observatory in the northern hemisphere to observe. See our update: http://www.ccera.ca/uncategorized/success-in-observing-pulsar-b032954/ The software is available via github: https://github.com/ccera-astro/pulsar_pfb _display No custom blocks required--just a modern Gnu Radio install, and ideally, pyephem. Doing this with Gnu Radio was so very easy... _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
