Hi Dana,
These whistlers were detected before the ground wire was removed.
The files I attached in my original post are not AAC compressed audio
files. They are videos made with the spectrogram image still with the
AAC compressed audio track.
The event detector only reliably works with 48k or 32k sample rates
and I use 32k, which means that the event files only have a bandwidth
of 16 kHz. I have attached the wav files with a gain factor of 10 and
the original vt files that retain timestamping and without any gain
factor.
If you use vlfrx-tools, you can use this filtering scheme (with an
event file as an example):
vtfilter -h bs,f=150,w=300 -h hp,f=50,poles=3 -h lp,f=8000,poles=3 -h
bs,f=8200,w=900
1650355192.vt |
vtblank -a 25 -v -d0 -t20 -v |
vtfilter -a th=4,ul=10000 |
vtraw -g 10 -ow >
1650355192g10_filtered.wav
This includes two band stop filters and a 3-pole low and high pass
filter as well as a mains tracking filter with an upper limit of 10
kHz of mains harmonics to remove the scratchiness. Lastly, it uses a
sferic blanker to blank out any sferics and makes it easier on the
ears.
On a side note, sferic blanking is a tool that makes coherent VLF
amateur radio transmissions possible.
I'm interested in any results you obtain in filtering!
