The UK Meteor Radar Project has been established and run by a group of skilled volunteers from the amateur radio and radio astronomy fields. These volunteers bring the specialist skills required to design, build and run both the radio beacon and the receiver network.

The aim of the project is to provide an extensive and capable resource to the science and STEM communities to enable the study of meteors over the UK, although coverage further afield is possible but not currently covered by the receiver network.

This is an extensive project that has only been made possible by the generosity of both the dedicated design team and a number of external organisations. This resource is planned to be provided without charge to all those who wish to use it and hence the donation of time, funds and equipment has been essential to realise this ambition. We would like to thank those who have already supported us and would of course welcome any addition support.

The following are some of our supporters listed without priority or disclosure.
