Funny, my EMF immune fiber connected internet data reception didn't suffer a bit. They have this thing called IDD as a way to get your data now. Pretty nifty, you should try it sometime. :-) Did I mention that we tossed our circa 1992 Ku band dish from Alden (remember them anyone?) off the roof last week? (We wanted to use its mounting bracket for an experimental little wind turbine) ----- Original Message ----- From: Gilbert Sebenste [mailto:sebenste@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, October 25, 2011 12:14 AM To: ldm-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <ldm-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: noaaport@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <noaaport@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [ldm-users] Yes, CME's do affect satellite reception By now, many of you have seen that Aurora Borealis (aka, the "Northern Lights" were seen throughout much of the U.S. in an incredibly short time frame this evening...peaking for only 15 minutes or so, but seen for a few hours faintly before and after the "main event". As it turns out, this did affect NOAAPort reception. For me, not significantly, as the carrier:noise ratio remained well above 9, which is when I start losing data. But still, you could easily see when this event was peaking.
