[TowerTalk] Grote Reber

[W0UN -- John Brosnahan]

Reber built a large array (192 dipoles) at just above 2 MHz in 
Tasmania.  He also
made many trips back to the US and Canada trying to get a complementary array
In the Michigan area where he could find the lowest electron density levels 
during
sunspot minimums.   All of this to do mapping of the Milky Way.

He was a maverick but not really a recluse in the sense that Oliver 
Heaviside was.
