CCD effects look like a good bet. If you watch the interview video, you'll see that all the "saucer" shapes line up with the pixel grid of the camera. Funny that.
And then read the SOHO FAQ page and you'll see that it's a known artifact. I'm personally used to CCD artifacts in video cameras, where the design tends to result in vertical lines from bright lights (aka "vertical smear"), but obviously the SOHO CCD design lends itself to horizontal smear instead.
If anyone ever makes a real UFO discovery, it won't be from science-ignorant bozos like these.

One must not that he does not publish the results for the 150m experiment
Actually the paper does. It says on page 9 of the PDF file:
Measurements of the impulse taken at close distance (3-6 m) from the installation and at the distance of 150 m gave indentical results, within the experimental errors.
From Table 1 on page 8 of the paper he gives experimental error as:
Table 1: Emitter N. 1. Influence of high voltage discharges on the deflection of the pendulum. Experimental data are the average of 12 measurements. The standard deviation of the single data is between 5 and 7%
This is fascinating stuff! Read the paper - they got identical deflections in pendulums 6m from the device and 150m from the device!!!! Even if it's not gravitational there's some wierd stuff going on. They describe the anomalous "force beam" produced as being extremely focused.
How many here would love to see measurements of the timing of the voltage discharge relative to the deflections of the pendulums?
