  • Power peaks on Seti@Home

    None of you guys answered my question to what is the highest power peak you have gotten, so I'm asking again. I got 181.26 which is the last yellow before the red. Can anyone beat me?

    If you read <a href="http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/stats/spikes_down.html">this</a> you will understand why the spikes are unimportant.

      Well, I know that most(most all) spikes are caused by interference but mine is well below 99999. I didn't know about that problem so I was just curious to who got a satellite in their unit. Also why do they only look at expected results? Isn't the point of SETI to look for unexpected signals?

        OK!
        actual:
        Peak 189.69
        Gauss 1.85 fit 15.617
        last:
        Peak about 202
        Gauss dunno

        It's impossible to look for unexpected result, because you can't recognize them as ET. Therefore SETI@home is looking for plausible schemes of signals. They are looking for schemes that if we were the sender could reach a supposed planet.

          I've had a peak of 313!

          My bro's got a gaus reading of 2.44 fit of 8, and 3.49 fit of 11. The fit has to be low (1-5) for the gauss reading to mean anything.

            That peak of 313 is the 2nd from last red block.

              I got wiped their. Are all units coming from Arecibo or are there other stations that SETI works with?

                They all come frome Arecibo, they will think about changing to another one when Arecibo has done its work which will last about 2 Years if I know right.
                It's all declared in detail on their website:

                  Hi Greebe

                  had some problems with NT-version and PD 5.13 now with 5.21 i switched back to it saving about 2-3 hours a unit

                      Hi Greebe

                      My range of used time is currently between 6 and 23 hours on a celeron 433@433 per unit. With Win-Seti on an average of about 16 - 17h
                      With NT-Seti on an average of about 14 - 15h

                      Neither my nor your results seem to be in the range they should be. I've read the win-client is about 3times faster when it's minimized and the NT-client is about 30% faster than the minimized NT-client.

                        Sorry Greebe, meant Win-client

                        Sounds that you ran the Win-client with graphics displayed where the graphics use much of your prozessors time.
                        I ran it all the time and minimized (not as screensaver).
