I am interested in data results. It would be great to have the data and work units of interesting signals stored. (It seems to me that the only data tracking we have is about user statistics).
Are there any add on programs for this?

THANKS Skilldude.
I understand, but; what I mean is that I am interested in checking out the work units that shows a signal that is strong enough to generate the graph for best gausian, pulse or triplet.
I would welcome a simple screenshot.
-a simple subroutine, not for feedback or or confirmation.

How about adding code to automatically capture screenshots for the completed WU that results with a score of interest?

I would very much like to have this myself.
It would be great to have the results for every WU! That would be much more interesting that credits and competitive stats!
I have tried different add on and had not got them to work well.

After input of URL for backround and uploading info, the screen went blank. seti at home seems to be functioning otherwise as well.
I have gone in to blank out the URL and this does not seem to do the trick. I have logged off and restarted only to find that the problempersist.

Wow, that's seriously hardcore. Would it be more efficient to try to get nad process tapes from other pre-existing stations, or does the "I'm personally looking for SETI" cool factor make up for the extra burden.

That said, would it make sense to make a program to take radio tapes from a variety of backyard stations and basically run the SETI@home analysis software over it? Think about how cool it'd be to have a P2P-type SETI application.

Take my word for it, there is no cool factor. The mailman doesn't talk to me anymore. I think it is more about wanting to do more than just let the computer crunch numbers for someone else. There is little burden, except the learning curve factor, and the initial set up. You turn it on, and record wave files.
And yes I would love to use Seti at home FFT to analyse some of the recordings I've got, As it is, I've got to manually look at each recording at different band widths.

JUst what are you trying to do? You have an Acct that is how you are posting. So are you trying to connect to a project? Please unhid your computer that makes it a lot easier to help you....To attach to Seti go to Boinc Manager projects tab, then click on the attach tab, and then enter your URL and acct number in the popup....


hi max;

What I am trying to do is to run seti@home on my laptop as well.
(It seems to me with your numbers that you could relate to this.)
To make a long story short my system had crashed, and there were remnents of seti past, (I searched all the files, found and deleated them.)
At this time, it had accepted the account key, but can not connect with the host.

Nearly every day this month, I run the following routine; I go to my email to copy my account key, I click on the seti http above this. I go to ceate account and sellect configure, paste the acount key and click the ok. I am transported to http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/account_setup_nonfirst_done.php, (after making sure that there is no trace of past boinc,) After installing I see the familiar outdated account info listed in projects. I already know that I am doomed, It will tell me again; invalid account key..........................
Since boinc manager believes that I am the gost of seti past, I will try and ask for and update,,,It is seti grounghog day, and I am seti bill murry. Trying the same things until I get it right. Is there a god????

I live in Maine and am cuttently putting together a seti station.
I would very much appreciate knowing the thoughts of people in the area, in anything regarding seti.



I noticed in your profile that you are from Waterville and that you teach at Colby. I just graduated from Thomas after living there for 4 years. What a small world!!!


I used to live at the apartment complex right across from the college.

I live in Maine as well. What do you mean by "seti station"? Sorry, I'm a newbie to using Seti, however I am very familiar with the concept, having read about it for many years. I just kept forgetting to actually install it on my own computer!

20) Questions and Answers : Windows : link classic-boinc (Message 135580)
Posted 11 Jul 2005 by Profile Rick Bishop
Post:
When was your classic account created?
May of this year.

Then your account won't be copied to BOINC until classic is shut down. On the "Activate Account" page (http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/sah_email_form.php) it says on the top of the page "If you participated in SETI@home Classic before 23 March 2005..."

Thanks Dave. This answers my question.
