Finally bought what seems to be the bible on #radioastronomy - Kraus. I have several other books which seem to defer to Kraus on some of the “basics”. Good to have all of the essential information in one place. Seems this book is only currently available as ring bound or a cheap paperback. One specific goal I have here for 2024 is to properly understand wave polarisation & Stokes parameters.

Interesting that decades later, you can do radioastronomy with a system small enough to carry in one hand.
