Listening to sounds of jupiter & Saturn question ..anyone help ?

Question

a friend once told me you can hear jupiter rf signal at between 18.100 and 18.200 on a hf radio if this is true where can you hear saturn and the other planets

Answer 1

Sounds like a great thing, but the reality is any radio you may have (like a home stereo or car radio) won't have the sensitivity to 'hear' the planets - other interference on earth (such as cell phones, radio stations, lightning, etc.) would completely mask any extra-planetary signals.
You would need a radio telescope with sensitivity to the right frequencies.
Check out nasa.gov and see if they have any details on the frequencies for the other planets - I'm sure they have worked it out already.

Answer 2

Hi. I read that Jupiter does emit rf energy, although I do not remember the frequency. Saturn is far smaller, far more distant, and far less active than Jupiter, so it should be much more difficult to hear..

Answer 3

if at all posible the only thing you would hear is the radio frequency coming from the super bolts of lightning

Answer 4

...well son, that all depended on how drunk I was... why there was a time when I thought I heard from the devil himself... turned out to be some ner'do'well as drunk as I was.......
