Science notes

A rural receiver is useful because the local noise floor is often lower than in a city. Signal levels and band noise here can support casual propagation watching and, later, more careful notes.

Planned, once the Kiwi is stable:

• GPS-locked frequency (built into the Kiwi)
• WSPR and related weak-signal reports from this grid
• Simple notes on band noise versus time of day
• Occasional coverage of solar / geomagnetic events if the receiver is healthy

This is not a university observatory. If you have a specific, well-bounded observation request that this site can actually support, use the contact page.
