Vai ser o bonito..


Hi,

I'm forwarding this message from the GNU Radio list, as perhaps some with 6
meter EME can copy this transmission.  I'm sorry that the first slot is
already over, but there is one more chance:   2017/07/05 02:04:00 UT

73,

Hi,

Just to let you guys know, I'll be radiating the moon with 1 MW and 36 dBi
49.92 MHz on 2017/07/04 at 01:21:00 UTC. The experiment will repeat also at
 2017/07/05 02:04:00 UTC. Both experiments last about 15 minutes, when the
Moon transits the radar beam.

In case somebody wants to tune in with their gear, here are some details.

I'm using the Jicamarca radio observatory radar, which is located in Peru.
The system is locked to GPS. The transmissions are binary phase coded
pulses with 10 microsecond baud length, so a recording with >100 kHz
bandwidth is needed.

If you've got a GPS locked system, you should be able to produce a lunar
synthetic aperture radar map, such as this one:

The phase code is a 13*13 bit Kroenecker product Barker code. The phases
are listed here:
http://www.haystack.mit.edu/~j/b169.h5

In text form, the code is:
[ 1.  1.  1.  1.  1. -1. -1.  1.  1. -1.  1. -1.  1.  1.  1.  1.  1.  1.
 -1. -1.  1.  1. -1.  1. -1.  1.  1.  1.  1.  1.  1. -1. -1.  1.  1. -1.

  1. -1.  1. -1.  1.  1.  1.  1.  1. -1. -1.  1.  1. -1.  1. -1.  1. -1.
 -1. -1. -1. -1.  1.  1. -1. -1.  1. -1.  1. -1.  1.  1.  1.  1.  1. -1.
 -1.  1.  1. -1.  1. -1.  1.]

Any reports of hearing the transmissions are appreciated.

I forgot to mention that the interpulse period is 38 ms on  2017/07/04
at 01:21:00
UTC and 40 ms on 2017/07/05 02:04:00 UTC.

We're transmitting two linear polarizations interleaved. Any polarization
should work.

Two independent linear polarizations will give optimal results when
producing a map (one can form polarized and depolarized images).

Here's a link to the radar:
