[Lowfer] Observation...

Mike:

I seem to see the same thing with some other interesting results around sunrise
-- which the physics books seem to support (diurnal shift).  As I get older I
find that my personal diurnal shift occurs at about 3AM and sometimes several
times each night.....   But it gives me a chance to check Spectran captures and
adjust the receiving equipment.

If you want to see postage stamp images that you can click for a larger view, I
heartily recommend a program called Irfanview which is a freeware program.  It
will automatically make a thumbnail page in HTML showing all of the images in a
file and then allow you to throw out those that you don't want and save the
result.  You can also add notes to the bottoms of the images.  Everybody who
uses it loves it.  I suspect is it another labor of love like Spectran and Argo
where the author just wants to share cool stuff.   Check:
