Read More Weekly updateAfter both Astro Pi and subsequently LimeSDR were not responsive two weeks ago, we wondered what went wrong. Analyses yielded that a conflict in experiment scheduling caused a failure on the Astro Pi, while the failure on LimeSDR was caused by an undervoltage condition. Anyhow, this is to let you know that the system is running again.
Read More Experiment continuesOnce again many things happened after the previous post. Various radio amateurs send their transmissions to check if they can be received by MarconISSta. Then we had to find out that the experiment stopped working (again). Why? And what about these deinstallation procedures?

Read More Schedule & HeatmapsWe are getting more familiar with the received data and start to realize the amount of work ahead of us. Not only will it be very difficult to decide on the bands that shall be investigated each week, it is even more difficult to identify various signals that we receive and how to interpret them.
