Radio_Jove_SPD_to_CSV_and_events

This code was developed for the University of Delaware Radio Jove program, by Victor Arriaza, for Dr. John Clem. Many thanks to David Daniels for providing helpful starter code for SPD conversion.

This code does two things

1. Turns SPD files generated by Radio SkyPipe into CSV files
2. Reads these CSV files and looks for events by comparing information from a Radio Jupiter Pro report file. The event data is then stored in a "_events" csv file.
