Three kilometers west of Järlåsa, the giant building spreads out towards the road with its tip pointing straight up into the sky.
An eight meter in diameter dish that is not only amazing to look at and also has a purpose. Sending signals to the moon.
- When they stop here along the way and I explain that I bounce signals on the moon, people do not believe it, they think I'm kidding. I have to sound gravely serious, says radio amateur and owner Anders Florin.
He is one of six people in Sweden who have been doing "moon bounce" or EME (earth, moon, earth) as it is called in English.
In total, Anders estimates that there are only a few hundred people doing this in the whole world.
- It is a certain form of amateur radio with telegraphy and you have to more or less build everything yourself, so not everyone gets caught up in it, says Anders Florin and laughs.

The interest in the dish has led Anders to put up a sign that tells about the dish.
