[SADXA] Solar noise

[Darrel]

Yes, the sun was giving strong radio flares for most of yesterday, as 
seen on the LWA2 radio telescope, but I was only detecting the very 
strongest ones on my own (18 MHz) receiver.   From the LWA2 data at 30 
MHz, the sun is also flaring today, but so far nothing like the strength 
of yesterday's bursts.  (As I was writing that, around 1830 UTC, I see 
it was after all giving a moderately strong burst.)

               Cheers,
                        Darrel, aa7fv.
