About
Science Radio Laboratories was started in early 2009 by Marcus Leech, a 30-year veteran of the computing and telecom industries with substantial experience in developing and integrated microwave RF gear in support of radio astronomy and science.
In the late 1980s, Marcus was involved in the Nation River Observatory project, a fixed-baseline two-element interfometer operating at 21cm wavelength. Marcus was in charge of the software architecture and devfelopment for both the dish pointing subsystems, and the software-controlled receiver.
Several years later, he was involved in early SDR work with custom-built quadrature receivers for radio astronomy.
Marcus has been involved with the Gnu Radio project for several years, and the gr-radio-astronomy subsystem he built has been used at several radio observatories around the world, including PARI in North Carolina, and a small Ku-band solar observatory in Finland.
