Radio and radar astronomy are powerful tools when studying the
wonders of the universe, yet they tend to mystify amateur
astronomers. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to
newcomers, containing everything you need to start observing at
radio wavelengths. Written by a mechanical engineer who has
actually built and operated the tools described, the book contains
a plethora of tested advice and practical resources. This revised
edition of the original 2014 book Getting Started in Radio
Astronomy provides a complete overview of the latest technology and
research, including the newest models and equipment on the market
as well as an entirely new section on radio astronomy with
software-defined radios (SDRs). Four brand-new beginner projects
are included, including bouncing a radar signal off the Moon,
detecting the aurora, and tuning into the downlink radio used by
astronauts aboard the ISS. Requiring no previous knowledge, no
scary mathematics, and no expensive equipment, the book will serve
as a fun and digestible reference for any level of astronomers
hoping to expand their skills into the radio spectrum.
