Hi Marcus,

Brilliant. I am in the middle of assembling my own radio telescope,
but had not thought Pulsar reception would be possible.

I have a couple of questions on the RF Hardware. I see from some other
updates, that the antenna is essentially sets of a 4 bay HDTV antenna.

How are you phasing them all together ? Just additive combiners with
same length coax ? What amplification are you using before feeding
them to the SDR ? Or ?


Best Regards

Iain

One of the many goals we set for ourselves at the Canadian Centre for

enough for a small observatory in the northern hemisphere to
   observe.

See our update:

The software is available via github:

No custom blocks required--just a modern Gnu Radio install, and ideally,
pyephem.

Doing this with Gnu Radio was so very easy...
