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

  • 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.


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.

Love to help.
The linked post doesn't include sufficient detail - what and where is the "waterfall plot" etc ?
