Before you can even think about building a long baseline radio receiver the first goal is to be able to detect a quasar with just one receiver from a suburban back yard. Then you can think about building two receivers. From my reading most amateur targets are things like Cassiopeia A or the Crab Nebula. Synchronizing the several receivers that are spread aroud is not really even required. Many years ago astronomers would mail magnetic tapes and the data would be combined days after the observations After all if both receivers are looking at the same distant transmitters you should be able search for a solution. But of course having good time tags reduces the search space. -- ===== Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
