RE: National Radio Quiet Zone

Been there a few times for radio telescope workshops. Really nice place. We brought our (visual) telescopes one trip and set them up inside the gated area (very dark there), but couldn't drive our vehicles in since the large telescope picks up interference from spark plugs, so we used one of their Checker cabs, which are diesel and have glow plugs instead of spark plugs.

There is a star party down there every year which I need to get to one of these days. It's about a six-hour drive from my house in KY to there; not too bad.
