Our algorithms for removing RFI and finding repeated signals work fairly well.



We can inject "birdies" (synthetic signals) to measure how well they're working.



We've developed tools for browsing, drilling down, and visualizing signals and candidates.

The SETI@home back end is getting closer to completion.

At this point we need to manually scan lots of results, looking for cases where our algorithms don't seem to be working perfectly. If you like, you can help us with this. ID: 1872320 ·

Message 1872380 - Posted: 11 Jun 2017, 5:22:50 UTC I would love to be able to help in this but I never went further than Pascal at Uni, and I don't know c++ code. But there are many out there that do have that knowledge. Getting our back end into gear, seems quite an appropriate expression here!



Please help if you can. ID: 1872380 ·

The linked post doesn't include sufficient detail - what and where is the "waterfall plot" etc ? ID: 1872396 ·
