  • Astronomy discussions on GitHub

    Explore the astronomy behind observations: neutral hydrogen's 21 cm line, Milky Way rotation, and spectral interpretation.

  • DSP discussions on GitHub

    Digital signal processing in general: sampling, the Fourier transform, filters, and how a spectrometer works.

    The electronics between the horn and the computer: low-noise amplifiers, filters, software-defined radios, cables and power.
