Research summary

This preprint describes a fabricated conical horn antenna and an experimental setup for observing Galactic neutral-hydrogen emission at the 21-cm line. It presents the antenna design, receiving chain, and measurement procedure as an accessible radio-astronomy instrument, with potential uses in education and further instrumentation development.

Extended notes

The instrument combines a horn antenna, preamplification, and spectral measurements. The study focuses on an accessible setup for observing neutral-hydrogen emission and supporting educational radio astronomy.
