How to make a "Itty Bitty Radio Telescope" from a satellite dish and LNB using SV1AFN's AD8313 power detector module to measure the signal in dBm and convert it into a voltage that can be digitised using an Adafruit ADC for the Raspberry Pi - using the design from F5VLB.
Nothing goes to waste as we can use the same dish and LNB to receive amateur radio signals from the Qatar-OSCAR 100 Narrow band transponder onboard the Es'hail-2 geostationary satellite with an RTL-SDR dongle, alternatively we could use the RTL Dongle as part of our Itty Bitty Radio Telescope and measure the power using a GNU Radio block on the Raspberry Pi.See my post from 15th March!
