Commensal programs for SETI, carried out concurrently with conventional radio astronomical observing programs, can be an attractive and cost-effective means of exploring the large multidimensional search space intrinsic to this effort. An automated commensal system, Serendip II, searches for 0.49-Hz signals in sequential 64,700 Hz bands of the IF of a radio telescope being used for an astronomical observation. Upon detection of a signal with power above a preset threshold, the frequency, power, time, and telescope direction are recorded for later study. The system has been tested at the Hat Creek Radio Astronomy Observatory 85-ft telescope and the NASA-JPL Deep Space Station (DSS 14) 64-m telescope.
