Hi,

I'm just curious if it was possible to search the database for signals from a specific location?

and if so.. has the database been searched for signals coming from the location of the WOW signal from the Big Ear radio telescope in the 70s??


Right Ascension (On the positive horn): 19h25m31s ± 10s

Right Ascension (On the negative horn): 19h28m22s ± 10s

Declination (Is the same for both horns): -26d57m ± 20m

The RA from the positive horn falls right on top of a dim star in the google window when zoomed all the way in.

I dont know what star it is though.
