So, we're trying to cut this square can with the recommended canopener. How in the world did you do this with this can opener?!?!?!?!?!

Hello all - we were inspired by the work here to build a telescope for our own RET program in Hawaii. I then refined the design a bit through a graduate seminar and have added more documentation and software on the later stages to go from raw data to a rotation curve. Hopefully this is helpful to others on the forum https://github.com/interstellarmedium/HI_telescope

A lot of my students have Macs, so I have been thinking about trying to set the software up on Raspberry Pi instead, but I have some logistical questions for anyone who has used the Pi. What are you using for a display? Do you have dedicated monitors, or are you remotely connecting from a laptop? And if the telescope is outside, how are you powering the Pi? Is battery life an issue?

Thanks,
Evan

Hi Evan,

We have used raspberry Pis extensively. Typical we login remotely using ssh into the pi or use a vncviewer. Sometimes we attach to a monitor if available or if the initial network setup went awry.

One can power the raspberry pi using power over ethernet but that may or may not require a separate hardware. @GlenLangston @glangsto has more experience with having telescopes with raspberry pi's out in the field.

Hi - I'd like to try out the DSPIRA activities. I ran into a problem early in the process, where I'm getting an error on cmake. The error messages are:
CMake Error at swig/CMakeLists.txt.37 (include):
include could not find the requested file:
GrSwig

and then there was Unknown CMake command "GR_SWIG_MAKE"

Is this is a common problem, and is there a known solution?
Thanks!
-George

Hello everyone!

My professor is concerned that perhaps our aluminized home insulation board is too thick. Her estimate is the material is about 1 inch thick, give or take. Is this acceptable or should we invest in thinner/thicker insulation? Thanks!

Hi,

As of today, on page : https://wvurail.org/dspira-lessons/HornOperation_spectrometer_description
the hot and cold calibration instructions have the same copy/paste text. As such, the cold calibration is missing.

Thank you for the work put into this. Amazing!

Cheers,
Paul
