You got me curious, so I searched around a little bit, and it seems that the pulsar is very faint, and flashes on a timed cycle. Looks you need some pretty heavy-duty equipment to record it, either a radio telescope or high-grade optical telescope, plus a way to log long exposures.

Basically, it seems pretty elusive for other than the best amateurs with special equipment. Something like that, anyway.
