3. Dish antenna. Surplus 18-inch Dish500, feedhorn, and SMA transition. The 10GHz RF hardware is attached to the bottom feed rail.

4. W7CQ/B with rain scatter. Screen grab of the DSP-10 display. The steady trace at 600Hz is the main signal carrier. Note Doppler scattering at higher frequencies probably due to cloud motion.

Special thanks and appreciation to Bob, W7PUA and Jimmy, W7CQ for making this project possible.
