20230719: Re: 20230718: latest 7 day summary NOAAPort Gap stats

Hi Jim, et. al,

So it looks like on that graph that Stonie sent out it never really recovered completely. I see my signal is down roughly 2.5-3dB compared to the “normal” average I get.  Are others seeing the same? 

Our NOAAPort dish here in Boulder has seen the same thing as Stonie's
dish in Nebraska.  On July 18 at 14:39 we experienced a 2 dB drop in
C/N, and it has not returned to previous levels, just like others.

Hopefully, the ticket that Gilbert opened will result in some positive
action 🤞

Cheers,

Tom

I just called the NWS Network Control of Operations (NCO).
They were absolutely shocked when I showed them what happened today and what's happening right now. They said nobody called in about it and nobody at the NCF or the NCO noticed this. I'm literally the first person who saw it this afternoon. And I figured that something this bad would be noticed immediately. And the guy at NCO said "yes, I thought we would've noticed that too!". 

I can't tell you how frustrated I am right now...

Gilbert

        Ugh!

    Michael Scott:  NOoooooooo!!

        By the way, it looks like all of the sites reporting summary Gap
        stats had high numbers of Gap messages today:

    Oh my!

    The fact that everyone had high numbers means we can not
    conclusively say you actually need that filter, there is clearly
    something else going on at a larger scale.  While the timing of that
    5G tower going live is _super_ coincidental with your issues,
    today's numbers for everyone is even **more** coincidental IMO.

    I'm not arguing against getting a better filter if you need to, if
    it improves your signal it could be worth it.  But I am VERY
    interested to see tomorrow's numbers...  It's not solar
    interference season, (ponders) what could have caused this??

        Please share with everyone CCed specifics of the 5G filter you
        go with including manufacturer, cost, relevant specs, and ordering
        lead time.

    Seconded, please and thank you!

    Best,

    -Mike
