Jupiter emissions are MHz.  Ku band is GHz.

Good morning Brooke,

Sorry, don't know the answer to that question. Interesting question though.

I am aware of the Radio Rove project and have played around at "listening" for Jupiter on HF and LO VHF but not in a very serious way.

cheers, Graham ve3gtc

Hi Graham:

Do you know if anyone has used a Ku-band receiver, like described in the paper, to look at Jupiter?
The Radio Jove project is looking between 18 and 40 MHz.

If you have an interest in trying to measure sun noise, you might like to have a look at the "itty bitty radio telescope".

Exactly geosyncs have sun outages as the sun aligns with the sat and your
dish.
GPS because the sats are distributed do not suffer from the effect.

Bob -

I do not believe it has any effect. The DirecTV satellites are
geostationary at about 22K miles. I used to experience the same phenomenon in the late 70's with my TVRO receiver at C band. GPS has some 36 or so satellites in a Medium Earth Orbit (MEO). Blockage, if it can even occur
due to the nature of the receiving antenna, of a single one for a few
minutes will have no discernible effect in my opinion. 73 - Mike

Subject: [time-nuts] Sun Outage

Two days this week, there was a 3 or 4 minute outage on DirecTV as the sun aligned with the satellite and my dish. So I was wondering what kind of
effect this has on the GPS system and especially timing receivers.
