Recordings For LUFT of Radio Spectrums (New Instrument) Dr. Cline invention
This repository contains short, well-documented audio recordings (.wav) and session logs from the LUFT Helix Reflector Mark I antenna and related experiments. The focus is on natural radio events (lightning, sferics, atmospheric, and celestial signals), captured and documented for scientific study and collaboration. https://x.com/CarlClineSr/status/1935690609081151500 notebook
- Antenna: LUFT Helix Reflector Mark I (see main LUFT repo for build details)
- Receiver: July 14th 2025 update: NESDR SMArt v5 and Wideband LNA 50MHz-4GHz SPF5189z
- RTL-SDR BLOG A Balun One Nine nooelec and connectors for dish.
- Software:
- HDSDR v2.81 (main SDR/audio capture and spectrum analysis)
- Audacity (for audio viewing and editing)
- Multi-Spectrum Lab (MSLab) and other analysis tools
- Recording Modes: Typically USB or AM, with spectrum windows and waveforms saved
- All recordings are in this `LUFT recordings'folder or subfolders by date/session
- Filenames indicate date, frequency, and event type, e.g.:
2025-06-16_StormLightning_7468kHz.wav2025-06-17_NightScan_4hr.wav2025-06-17_SfericsSweep_333kHz.wav
- Each recording has a matching
.mdor.txtlog with notes on setup, conditions, and key events
# 2025-06-16 Storm Lightning Session's and updates as they happen
- Time: 11:55 PM CST
- Frequency: 7,468 kHz (USB)
- Equipment: LUFT Helix, ATS-25 Max, HDSDR v2.81
- Notes: Several strong sferics, band scan, heard distant voices (suspected 30m band from China), lightning times logged.
- Spectral Analysis: Use HDSDR, Audacity, Python (FFT), or Multi-Spectrum Lab
- Research Focus: Lightning sferics, HF propagation, atmospheric/celestial signals
- Collaboration: Data is public—collaborators may analyze and publish findings with attribution
- Most files are <100 MB for GitHub compatibility
- Long sessions or full datasets may be hosted on Kaggle, Zenodo, or other platforms (see links/files as available)
If you would like to see the antenna setup, refer to the gallery in the main LUFT project (or request photos via GitHub Issues). great pictures indeed
