I agree with Tim. As someone who spent over a decade spending a personal fortune on 20 meter class dish antennas and custom building cryogenically cooled receivers and support instrumentation as a (the) Canadian SETI pioneer I just don't see the fun, or challenge(?) of buying a store bought radio and hooking it up to a store bought antenna. You KNOW you're gonna hear chatter even before the antenna jack touches the antenna feed. Then you participate in a 'Contest' and try to duplicate that which has been done a zillion times before. Now that's a challenge eh!
