The Jamesburg Dish

Mama mia!  That's an antenna!  This is the skyhook that the very hip people in yesterday's video (scroll down) are using to send very cool messages to Gliese 526.  With a setup like that, they may have a shot at a QSO!

As I suspected, real hams (not the hipsters!) are doing the tech work.
