Sounds like you might wanna hook up with the Society of Amateur Radio Astonomers.

A much easier task along these lines would be to listen to the radio emisions of Jupiter via the Radio Jove project.

A better way to experience background radiation is watching the 'snow' on your TV-set. About 10% is the background radiation that is a leftover from the Big Bang. Enjoy watching the birth of our Universe.

Your AM radio or TV does that already. Obviously, there's lots of other noises as well. Given background or lack thereof, the average person couldn't build a receiver quiet enough to really hear ONLY the cosmic background noise.

there have been 2 scientists (sorry, can no longer remeber the names) who have been scanning the skies with a micro-wave telescope. no rely what they did they continually have been given what they theory became noise - interferrence. on the comparable time Stephen Hawking became winding up his PHD, which envisioned (in accordance to wide-spread relativity) that the universe would have all started from a singularity (the huge bang). This history radiation became surely envisioned by making use of Hawking as something he ought to observe to objective the thought. i think of the history radiation means that each and every thing is approximately 3 tiers warmer than in any different case. the two scientists have been presented Nobel prizes yet Hawking wasn't. it relatively is captivating stuff, this, are you analyzing Astronomy? a number of the fuzz once you get a "snowy" television reveal screen between channels is history radiation.

Sounds like the name of a new-age musical group.

just listen to white noise on the radio. It is part CMB, part other stuff, but its an easy way to go.
