Really long time no update

Hello again anyone following this blog, I have temporarily suspended operations at the observatory (duh). I am now working on starting a small business making boutique music synthesizers and audio products. The radio telescopes are just too big for our family's property. Stay tuned though as my company will be making some stuff for VLF/natural radio (musical applications). Hopefully in the future I can get back to radio astronomy... I have a rather cool idea for a small Kraus-type scope made with (you guessed it) hardware cloth and TV antennas (but this time a rigid wooden frame. I'm done with Home Depot's stupid angle irons... :P
