   I was a member of SARA (The Society of Amateur Radio Astronomers) in the mid   
   80's for 4-5 years. Also, around the same time had an article subitted and   
   published in The Practical Observer.. magazine. While a member of SARA, our   
   annual meeting where helded at Green Bank, West Virginia. This is my home   
   State. Its been so long seen i've messed with any Radio Astromony projests.   
      
   But i'll see if I can dig out (find) my old SARA books and manuals. I've been   
   a member of the Kankwha Vally Astromony society seen 1984, the years I get my   
   Clestron C-11 Visual Light Bucket (telescope). Most amateur Radio guys convert   
   Their 6 to 12 feet satellite dishes into Radio Telescopes. It one time, had a   
   analog ink and paper graph reader setup as a read out, with a bata-9 foot   
   dish. Amateurs have played a big part in finding gama ray burst sources.
