Since the successful interception of extra-terrestrial signals by the ASNSW, it was decided to raise the height of our radio antenna by 37 metres, whilst restoring the antenna after a recent wind storm which blew the antenna over the dish of our radio telescope.
This increase in height will put the receiver significantly closer to the source of the recently identified signals, thus resulting in an enhanced reception, high-gain antenna, rare amongst amateur astronomers!
Society chess players are excited with the prospect of holding chess tournaments by radio with extra-terrestrial participants, and new rules are currently being proposed which would allow the heirs of individual players to continue the game if the duration of individual games became inconveniently long.
At the same time, society astrophotographers are keen to exchange slow-scan images of some of their favourite photos for images of photos of the same objects taken from a totally different perspective.
