Yes! Everyone should own a cantenna or 2, or 3... I built a 2ft diameter version during COVID for radio astronomy.

I observed the "H-Line", https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_line

Made a GIF of the transit of the milky way using this software on a raspberry pi with some SDR/RF equipment. https://github.com/byggemandboesen/H-line-software

Unfortunately I only have some images on my phone right now, a git page is on my todo.
