I am not sure if Arecibo is still on but apparently they are putting out a
BIG signal on 432 EME.  It might be worthwhile to see if you can hear them.

It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart
you are.  If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong.

Handheld 2.5 wavelength yagi and FT817's were used at the high school 
down here to copy this large signal. Nice to have a big circular pol 
signal like that, hold the yagi "however you want" polarization. 
Seriously easy to copy. Was indicating on the little bargraph on the 
radio and copy in ssb mode, 2.7kHz b/w or so. It was a monster signal.

Too fun
