Time alignment issues between antenna position and spectrum #1

Closed jswoboda closed 2 years ago

jswoboda commented 3 years ago

Plotting out azimuth,elevation and received power there seems to be an offset between them. Need to figure out where the delay is and get the threads realigned.

Changed how often tags are created and it seems to have fixed the basic alignment of the power and the pointing direction, as seen below. The image below is taken from an Npoint scan of the sun which shows a large jump in the power right in the middle of the scanning. npointscanecomp

Also need to change how long the antenna dwells in a specific spot.

Fixed and now able to do n-point scan of sun: 39b268f14246a897a308adb0520ea951af344b9c
