Radio Astronomy


By seeker - Posted on 09 March 2010

Hi, I am an amateur astronomer and would like to obtain information on how to build a radio telescope for personal use. Seeker
Hi, I'm new. I wonder if it is possible to set up a unit at home to fashion one's own messages and sent them to extraterrestrials.
On the SARA Grant Page http://www.radio-astronomy.org/?q=node/32 there are links to several good beginner projects for radio astronomy. Radio Jove and SuperSID both have active user groups that are very helpful. Good luck and let us know if you have other questions or need help.
