Yes, the sun's blackbody radiation tail extends down the entire radio spectrum and is definitely strong enough in the VHF, UHF, and microwave bands to produce detectable noise.

What would be the best way to test for alternator whine noise?
This is noise coming from a source within the receiver - either the radio or cassette section (noise from a CD transport is very rare). If you determine that the noise originates with your radio antenna, an antenna filter (like American International's AS100) plugs in between the antenna and your receiver to stop (or minimize) noise from entering your system.
What type of radio receiver do not respond to static interference?
FM radio is inherently less sensitive to natural noise ... not immunebut significantly less sensitive ... than AM radio is.
What are parameters of radio receiver?
1. Sensitivity2. Noise Figure3. ReceiverBandwidth4. Dynamic Range
Is the radio telescope an instrument which measures radiation?
A radio telescope has two basic components, a large radio antenna and a radio receiver. It is used to detect radio-frequency radiation emitted by objects in space.
How do you know if a car is bugged?
You can certainly can find someone with an adequate radio receiver that will detect a radio bug. But if it's a tape recorder, you'll just have to find it.
What would l be using if I was trying to tune into an AM or FM frequency?
You would probably be using a radio receiver. It is possible you'd be using a transceiver, which combines the functions of a transmitter and a receiver.
What is the difference between noise and attenuation?
Noise (as related to a radio signal I suppose) is an unwanted signal being processed by a receiver. Attenuation is a loss of the intended signal before it gets to the receiver (usually due to such things as distance, line of sight obstructions, etc.
What is broadcast receiver?
A broadcast receiver is a radio that receives broadcasts from commercial radio stations.
How was the radio thought up?
The first radios were untuned radio telegraphs that broadcast a burst of radio static generated by a powerful arc when keyed. The receiver used a device called a coherer to detect this burst of radio static and activate the telegraph sounder. It took the development of vacuum tube triodes to modulate radio waves with voice and music as well as provide tunable radios. Armstrong invented improved receivers like the Superheterodyne and improved modulation techniques like FM that rejected static and noise.
Why is radio receiver clear at night?
During the day there is more interference from solar energy and the radio station boost there signal to achieve there signal to noise ratio to get the coverage range. At the night the solar interference level is reduced and radio station reduce there power output accordingly. Interestingly that in the evening this mean that you can hear some station you would not head when your locality has reduced it power output and the solar noise level has reduced but other ratio station that have got to night yet still (Terminator line has not passed yet) have there signal boosted. I remember hearing French radio in Edinburgh at 11pm for about 30 minutes before they reduced there power level and there signal sank below the noise of my receiver.
Did Tesla invent the crystal radio?
A crystal radio receiver, also called a crystal set, is a very simple radio receiver, popular in the early days of radio. It needs no battery or power source and runs on the power received from radio waves by a long wire antenna. Crystal radios are the simplest type of radio receiver, and can be handmade with a few inexpensive parts, like an antenna wire and tuning coil of copper wire. Tesla invented the coil and that was the basis of it but at the turn of the 20th century, an American scientist, Greenleaf Whittier Pickard, found that a number of naturally occurring crystalline minerals could be used to detect radio signals.
What are the types of FM receiver?
TYPES OF RADIO RECEIVER • Basic crystal set. • A T.R.F. Receiver. • A Superhetrodyne Receiver. • the Reflex Receiver.
