VLB radio SETI

I have thought this out for less time than it will take me to compose the post. I
have not looked into why very long baseline telescopes work much less how to make
them work.

The current seti@home takes a little time and no cost other than electricity.

But how cheap could a radio receiver be made and installed? And installed all
over the world could they be tied together? Antenna location accuracy is GPS
accuracy. Time accuracy under a second with time standard query. Probably not
accurate enough to be useful.

The cost would be a lower (seti) frequency than wireless networks so the
electronics cost is only assembly not exotic hardware. Could a few hundred
thousand people afford them?

And if it does get expensive, would on at every university and interested company
in the world help?

But first, is there any value at all?
