Keep in mind that our cycles are probably skewed a little by the fact that we count almost every little sunspot nowadays as well. Many tiny sunspots went uncounted in the Dalton Minimum. They all get counted now. So a graph of the Dalton would look a little higher the way they count them now. Similar to the way we name every patch of tropical clouds that comes close to meeting the criteria. In the old days how many small fish storms never even were recorded until the satellite era? A guy in Austria has Wolf's telescope from 1750. It would be quite easy to compare what we see now to what he did... Thanks for that Acid. I'm looking forward to your results. I'll help if you tell me what I'm doing.

The sample may have little data as of now.
Actually you can find out the optic size and buy a Chinese telescope that will mimic the capabilities pretty closely. We could do a big group study using $10 telescopes. full circle technical capabilities.

Does this suffice?? Here's his address... Thomas K. FriedliRudolf Wolf Society, Ahornweg 29, 3123, Belp, Switzerland Others noted sunspots prior to Wolf, "However, Wolf soon realized that Staudach’s values were systematically lower than those for the recent cycles observed by Schwabe and he suspected that this was most probably due to the cruder instrument used by Staudach and the limited amount of details recorded in his small sketches (Figure 2; Arlt 2008). Therefore, Wolf concluded that Staudach's observations had to be multiplied by a k personal coefficient of 2 in order to match his own 19th century observations (Wolf 1861a)." Schwabe was recording 1789-1875!

Wow! Thanks for this Mr. Acid. And all these years I thought some guys just pointed a scope at the sun and counted spots and groups. We are an amazing species!

Struggling with time Ratty?? Not time, Acid, brain cells. Are we at cranial minimum? When does the new cycle start?
