**Summary**

  * The signal observed was very strong and the peak was very wide (see figure below, normally we center the peak at 800 mhz and set the span to 20 mhz, this time I needed 100 mhz). I was worried that the signal might be saturating and unable to get in touch with Jim, we tried changing the variable voltage to see if it has an affect on the signal strenght.

           - 21:15 - 21:27 UT 10 -rfpic=cross,direct
           - 21:27 - 21:35 UT 20 -rfpic=cross,direct
  * Unable to see any change in the signal strength on the spectrum analyser, we tried to change the modes
