Notes:

1. There were two signals that managed to trip the SETI Net alarm software.
2. The system recorded the first long enough to see that the signal was following the Doppler expected while several JPGs were created (above)
3. I moved the antenna off axis and verified that the signal decreased as expected.  The antenna elevation was at maximum so that Azimuth changes made small differences in the signal.  Elevation changes verified that the signal was located in space (not local)
4. Several more JPGs and the signal began to drift up band and out of the Doppler limits I expect.  The signal kept moving up band
5. I expect that the signal, what ever it was, was drifting down band and happened to coincide with the Doppler expected for long enough (about 15 minutes) to trip the alarm.
6. Signal is Falsified.
7. Second signal was also falsified by the same technique.  I don't know if they were both from a single source or not.

Notes:

1. I have moved the antenna and the signal peaks in Canis Minor at star
   Procyon. 
2. I am now running at full resolution (1.4 Hz/Bin) and the signal
   seems to have Doppler. 
3. Signal wanders around a bit from bin 1175 to bin 1182
   but it is making a rather nice line down my chirped waterfall display.
