Design of an L-Band Dual Feedhorn for the Purposes of Microwave Search for ExtraTerrensial Intelligence

Logic behind the design of a dual feedhorn for the 26-meter Cassegrainian antennaof the Agassiz Station-Harvard-Smithsonian Observatory is presented in the paper. Theoretically predicted arid measured results in the "waterhole" band (1.4-1.7 GHz) are presented. The antenna has been utilize...
