- FM Radio Detection of Meteors - Gives details of the construction and operation of an amateur observatory for radio meteor studies. The 1998 Leonid and Geminid meteor showers were observed using the forward scatter of the signal from an FM radio station, and these data are presented.
- Radio Meteor Observing Bulletin - Observation Summaries, news, observer activities.
- Jordan Astronomica Society: Observing Meteors by Radio - How it works, results, references and links.
- Meteor and Colorgramme - Software for radio meteor observation, online data from operating stations.
- Radio Meteor Observation Live Data - Real time graphical data from stations using the software HROFFT.
- University of Florida Planetary Radio Group - What they do and who they are.
- Radio Design Services - Provides information on detecting meteors by radio. Includes descriptions of the principles and equipment used, and results with related links.
- University of Florida Radio Observatory - Dedicated to the study of decametric radio emissions from the planet. Information, prediction tables and downloadable sounds.
- High Speed Meteor Scatter Operation - Many of the most important papers and technical information on high speed CW meteor scatter operation.
- The American Meteor Society - Has as a goal to encourage and support amateur and professional research. The site also includes sections on meteor showers, fireball sightings, visual and radio observation and spectroscopy.

- Gart Westerhout - Gart Westerhout (1927- ) is a Dutch astronomer. Well before completing his university studies at Leiden, he had already become well-established internationally as a radio astronomer in The Netherlands, specializing in studies of radio sources and the Milky Way Galaxy based on observations of radio continuum emissions and 21-cm spectral line radiation that originates in interstellar hydrogen.
- Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations - Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations (ISBN 0-385-31474-4) is a 1996 book by author and comedian Al Franken. It is satirically critical of right-wing political figures, such as Bob Dole, Phil Gramm, Newt Gingrich, and particularly radio host Rush Limbaugh.
- John Paul Wild - John Paul Wild (also known as Paul Wild, not to be confused with Swiss astronomer Paul Wild) (born May 17 1923 in Sheffield, England) is an Australian radio astronomer who served as chairman of the CSIRO and specialized in radio astronomy, including radio observations of the Sun. He won numerous awards, including the ANZAAS Medal in 1984, and the Paul Wild Observatory at Narrabri, New South Wales is named after him.
- Radioastron - RadioAstron project is an international collaborative mission to launch a free flying satellite carrying a 10-meter radio telescope in high apogee orbit around the Earth. The aim of the mission is to use the space telescope to conduct interferometer observations in conjunction with the global ground radio telescope network in order to obtain images, coordinates, motions and evolution of angular structure of different radio emitting objects in the Universe with the extraordinary high angular resolution.
- Simply Sean - Simply Sean is a radio show that airs weekly on CBC Radio One hosted by comedian Sean Cullen. It runs every Saturday morning for an hour starting at 10am (10:30am in Newfoundland) featuring songs chosen by Cullen interspersed by his own offbeat observations.
