Anybody want to take over the domain telescopemaking.org?

I’ve had the domain telescopemaking.org for a long time (even longer than brainwagon.org) but I haven’t been keeping up with refreshing any of the content on it in years.

Thanks to Joanne, K9JKM for pointing out that Space Weather Radio is piping audio of Ursid Meteors crossing the radar fence which guards our country from the Ruskies. If you tune in, occasionally you’ll hear a rapid descending tone, caused by the radar bouncing off the ionized trails of meteors. Pretty cool.
