I’ve organized all these projects (and three bonus ones) into a clean, printable PDF. You’ll get:

✅ Schematics for the $10 solar radio telescope
✅ Antenna building guide (no soldering iron? no problem)
✅ Software setup walkthroughs (Windows/Linux/Raspberry Pi)
✅ Troubleshooting: “Why do I hear only noise?”
✅ Log sheets for recording solar flares and meteor showers
✅ A glossary of radio astronomy terms
