[Moon] [Moon-Net] Sun noise measurements

[qtc at kpnmail.nl]

Good morning Peter and others,

 

On 1296 MHz I use a 2.4 meter dish. Calculated sunnoise is 6.66 dB and measured (yesterday) 6.4

Moonnoise is hardly measurable here 😉

Hi Peter,

 

Sun noise at OH1LRY: 12.5dB with 4m dish.

 

Moon noise maybe 0.5dB, not an accurate measurement.

Can I suggest (request? ) that as many of you as can do so make a sun noise measurement during the weekend. Moon noise as well if possible.

Dont get too fussy about finding cold sky, if you go about 20 degrees forward from the sun that will be fine.

Sunday is a good day to measure moon noise, its in a cold sky background. 

My measurements today are  Sun 14.5dB and Moon 1.0dB.

I would be grateful for any that you can send me.
