#HAMsci Looking to setup a space weather station.
First step was to order all the parts.
Next step was to see if I could get #WWV station (spoiler. Yeah, I already know I can).
Looking forward to helping out another crowd sourced project.

Lezing 2 van vandaag: Moneybird & Adyen over het automatiseren van de financiële kant van het ondernemerschap #WebwinkelVakdagen #WWV

Goedemorgen! Beetje uitgeslapen vandaag 😊 straks met wat collega’s naar de Webwinkel Vakdagen in Utrecht. Dagje kennis en inspiratie op doen #WebwinkelVakdagen #WWV

Sweet. Just worked WW0WWV on 12m FT4.

WWV, the time signal radio station, is having a birthday party in Fort Collins on Saturday. Sounds like it's a mini field day too. https://fcmod.org/event/wwv-frequency-celebration/

Every once in a while, I've poked the #shortwave radio station #WWV to have an online version that one could listen to at night.

Someone went out and did the next best thing - built a simulation of it. I slept pretty well last night, and I think this had a lot to do with it.

Given what I currently use it for, I could just go back to using my #Casio #GD350 and get vibrating timers and alarms that are easier to set. The only downside is that I'd have to manually set it from #WWV periodically.

#VLF/#LF/#MF spectrum waterfall recorded for 5 hours overnight with #lightning in the area. Unfortunately the time is incorrect but I started this around midnight, a few hours later a storm system came through. Used an #RTL-SDR and a modified MLA-30 active loop antenna in the attic.

The solid line around 0.060 (60 kHz) is #WWVH. All the stuff on the right pat 0.50 (500 kHz) is the AM broadcast band.

There's harmonic/image of #WWV in there somewhere, probably due to a cheap setup but worth more experimentation to clean up, particularly needs better AM broadcast filtering (it's not supposed to show up). The signal path is <ActiveLoop>--<Power Injector>--<AM Band Filter>--<Upconverter - Ham It Up Nano>--<RTL-SDRv3>

#GQRX #SDR

In times of turmoil, upset, and uncertain futures, at least we have #WWV. For now, at least.
And no, I haven't logged into my Mastodon instance on this system yet, so deal with the potato screenshots. #DragonOS #SDRpp #AirSpy #HFplus #swl #hamradio
