The software for this exercise presents students with a radio telescope they can point at a source in the sky, viewing the output of the radio receiver on a graphic display that resembles a digital oscilloscope. The student manual describes an exercise in which students measure the signals from several pulsars at various frequencies, learning about the appearance of pulsar signals, the strength and period of the signal as a function of frequency, pulsar period, age of the pulsar and use interstellar dispersion to estimate the distance to the pulsar.
