Sorry for the long delay, you message got lost on my hard drive and I just read it today. Next I'll probably find a message from my third grade teacher asking about my homework. Anyway, I got that information from a book called "Communication With Extraterrestrial Intelligence" edited by Carl Sagan and published in 1977 ISBN 0-262-69037-3, it's on page 232. The particular article had 9 authors, the most famous was Charles Townes the inventor of the LASER. By the way, Arecibo is far more sensitive now than it was in 1977.
