Strong non-Io Jovian activity on 110724
My thanks to the STEREO WAVES Team
The drawing below shows part of the STEREO WAVES antenna system (designated by red arrows). The 3 monopoles are orthogonal and about 6 meters long.

Good Io-C at Nancay on 110707
Close to pure Right Circular Polarization, not generally expected for Io-C, generated by southern Jovian magnetosphere cyclotron masers. Io-A and Io-B are generated by northern magnetosphere masers; Io-C and Io-D by southern magnetosphere masers. In 5 years time, I hope Juno flies through some of those masers.
