Kent:

Have been recording an unusual signal the past few days. Rather than having a spectrum typical of that associated with magnetic storms the frequency is more concentrated within a more narrow band.

Since last Saturday (10/10/1998) the frequency band has changed from .008 a second which has a wavelength of 23,281,477 miles to .022 with a wavelength of 8,212,528 miles. Strange.

Am enclosing a 6 hour segment of signals recorded from 0930 UTC to 1530 UTC, 10/13/98.

AST1.gif is a recording of the raw data, Low pass filtered at 2.2 hz.

AST3.gif is the spectrum analysis. Note most of the energy is concentrated around .022 sec.

SDR05.gif is a real time photo of the data before processing.

Any comments? Explanations?

Latest update. Six hour segment from 1530 UTC to 2030 UTC, 10/13/98. Peak frequency .027 sec...6,902,001 miles wavelength.

(Explanation of conversion) Speed of light is 299,820,00 meters per second. Multiply by 3.2818. (Meters to feet) Divide by 5280 = miles.

Next update at 0330 UTC, 10/14/98
