Just to satisfy my curiosity: what's easiest to detect galactic pulse emitter (regardless of type), and what's the minimum setup to reliably look at it, whether it's just during night time, or whatever. Just seeking perspective, I haven't just won the lottery.
In another post in this thread, I put some links to some amateur pulsar receiving efforts. It looks like you need about 5-10 meters of aperture and a decent LNA. Someone was receiving Crab Nebula at about 0.5 dB SNR with a 20+ foot dish.
IF you know the period of the pulsar, you can time average. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
