RX-888 MKII as uncalibrated solar radio spectrometer #221

@jcfitzpatrick12

Description

@jcfitzpatrick12

Add a new operating mode to the rx888mk2 receiver that produces spectrograms compatible with the e-Callisto network. Before implementing, the following needs to be understood:

  • File format & layout: what FITS conventions does the e-Callisto network expect?
  • Spectrogram relationships: how do spectrograms produced in this mode relate to those produced by CALLISTO receivers, given the differing hardware and means of recording the spectrogram?
  • Configs: what parameters should be user-configurable?
  • Software compatibility: output files must be readable by existing Callisto tooling.
  • Publishable: the resulting FITS files should be publishable to Astrodoncel.

A corresponding mode should be added to the signal_generator receiver for hardware-free testing.
