Description
Summary:As the second step of the real time monitoring system of the solar radio disturbance, we constructed a 2.8 GHz radio receiver with 500 MHz bandwith. Using the control and observing system (Yoon et al.~2004), we observed the Sun, and found some frequencies, which disturb the Solar radio flux to be observed. DMB and aiport control frequencies are identified as responsible for this disturbance. As well as the testing the receiver, the measurment of the radio environment at 2.8 GHz with 500 MHz bandwith are carried out around Chungbuk National University. In fact, the radio power of the two frequencies, 2.649 GHz and 2.874 GHz is so high that we can not observe the Solar radio signal at 2.8 GHz. We report some results of this measurment and suggest the method to overcome this problem. We conclude also that the frequecies, which are important for the astronomy, should be protected in the future.
