I never knew this place existed. I'm really curious how they shielded the antenna for Allegheny Mountain Radio from the radio telescope. If something as small as a poorly maintained vacuum cleaner can interfere with the telescope then how on earth do they shield a radio broadcast antenna?
- unsignedint 11y agoMotors from vacuum cleaners can generate uncontrolled broadband noises that can cause harmful interferences. Radio station, in other hand, as long as it is set up correctly, wouldn't cause the same type of interference. Perhaps in the case of the radio station, though, to reduce possible inteference, they use a combination of band-pass filters as well as antenna design that reduces radiations to the direction of the facility.
