Description

Hawk's Nest Radio Astronomy Observatory is a
participant in the RadioJOVE project providing observations of
radio emissions from Jupiter, the Sun, and the Galactic Background
to other members of the RadioJOVE community. The observatory
consists of an LWA (Long Wavelength Array) antenna, a TFD (Terminated
Folded Dipole) array, a JOVE dipole array, and a Mosely 20 MHz
Yagi.

The
JOVE I receiver is fed the output from the TFD array, the JOVE II
receiver the JOVE dipole array, the FSX 8S 12-bit switching dual
polarization spectrograph receives the TFD array, the FSX 2 10-bit
single polarization spectrograph receives the LWA array, and the
SDRPlay RSP2 Software Defined Radio receives the TFD array.
