21cm hydrogen telescope assembled onto support frame
Our small 21cm hydrogen-line radio telescope got mounted on its lumber support stand this evening, with the help of some student hangers-on.
Helpers (left to right) Edward, Chris, and Richard with our 21cm radio telescope.
The stand, with some concrete blocks will go onto the roof sometime soon, and will be pointed at a fixed +40degree declination, to capture interesting transits of the galactic plane twice a day.
