- Why Earth Resistivity Surveying Doesn't Work (6-9)
(PDF 644KB)
- Following his introduction to the technique in the previous issue, Mike Bedford discusses some of the weaknesses of earth resistivity surveying. This is followed up with some practical suggestions as to how it could be made more effective at finding unknown caves.
-
- Cave Radio Trials at Higher Frequencies (10-12)
(PDF 2.5MB)
- Cave radio systems generally employ low radio frequencies. Rob Gill decided to examine the characteristics of higher frequencies in the cave environment, initially using readily available amateur radio equipment, to determine if practical applications for these frequencies may become apparent.

- Signal-to-Noise Ratio and its Assessment (22-23)
(PDF 1.7MB)
- In traditional cave radio systems, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a received signal has rarely been estimated. Andy Talbot has made some software available for producing signals with known SNR, which can be used as an aid to assessing system designs. John Rabson reviews it.
