I think i got a wow signal! It was right at the start of a new workunit, and there wasnt much power, then at the middle of the frequency there was a
gaussian. It was bigger than the wow signal example in time, but nevertheless...
I do believe I have just helped prove alien existance.
So at the moment I'm trying to finish the workunit...

you can start with the part after "I think"....LOL
How do you know you have discovered Alien Life.
Thanks Jamuhn

Maybe if you had an idea about S.E.T.I. then you might know. If so, why are you in the S.E.T.I. part anyway?

I wonder how many pages this will span and nothing turning up.

S.E.T.I.
Search for extraterrestrial intelligence
I was just asking how you knew you found alien life. I am not being a smartass here I am truly interested in what you have found and how it proves
alien life.

Please post your entire findings to ats and the world and you will be the most famous person on earth. That is if you are telling the truth.  If
you actually found alien life with seti you would be typing just a bit more

I would also like to know what leads you to conclude that this data blip is indeed of extraterrestrial origin?
I have seen many spikes in my SETI, but as far as I know, none of them have ever provided evidence of the existence of alien life forms.
Please explain further.

Our second assumption is that the signal will be focused on a very narrow frequency band. This is because a wide band signal is unnecessarily wasteful
in energy that could be better used to enhance the strength and range of the signal: the wider the frequency band, the weaker the signal. In addition,
a narrow band transmission will be easily recognized as artificial, as against a naturally occurring signal. No known natural radio signals are narrow
band.

Well, this was some time ago. I made a post about it, but no one replied.

Hi Elija, wow I haven't been in the seti forum for ages, I've really neglected the threads here, but I still run the programme and I'm closing in
on my 3000th WU.
When you say that you have seen something like the famous WOW signal in the graphics of your seti screen saver, did you actually see the peak in the
form of a bell shape , as in the link that you gave us? I have quite often had large peaks in my work units, but unfortunatly they have always been
more like the images that can be found here in this link
setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu...
which although looks impressive is down to radio interferance.
I know the first time I saw this my heart lept into my mouth, and I was gutted to find I hadn't found ET
The next time you see anything interesting , hit the print screen button and paste it into paint as a record.
If you did ever find anything , I'm pretty sure that SETI send you notification , so I think you may be unlucky this time I'm afraid, but you never
know I could be wrong!

As I said, I haven't finished the workunit yet, so when that is done, they will know.
Hmm. Looking at those, maybe it is a false alarm. It definately was a gaussian though, not a constant signal. But yeah, more than 12 seconds means
either terrestrial or mobile source. I hope its the latter though.
I think I'll shut up now and see if I can delete the thread. Don't want to get everyones hopes up...

So you do not actually have a record to show us of this find, you're just saying it was what's in the link?

I said it was the same, only a bit longer. As pantha explained, it could be false. Seems he/she is one of the only people who actually knows what I'm
talking about.

hey don't worry, I thought I'd found an alien signal too when I first saw one of those huge peaks, I even posted about it in this forum , I've
since deleted the image though so I didn't link you to it in my last post.
I don't think the thread needs deleting as it serves a good purpose in making people aware of what can crop up in the graphics for a work unit.
Perhaps an edit of the title to 'correction, I thought I found alien life' or something like that would be the best way to go.

Sometimes humans focus too much on one thing and can end up thinking they see something that may not be.
