coverage receiver that one could purchase?

When money is no object to you, go have one built. Pick a defense contractor
and tell them what you want. Meanwhile, stop wasting folk's time in the
hobby with idiotic questions.

Stationary or portable? Modern or classic?
It also depends in what price range you have in mind - and what you want to
hear!

I want one of those radio telescopes and a really big yard to put it in, oh
hell, maybe a mountain to put it on top of. This should only be a few 100
millions. Maybe I should have an array of them. Spread out over all
continents, maybe a few in space. Should be able to hear everything!
