An ultra-wide-band receiver was installed for testing at the Parkes telescope on 31st July 2017. The receiver is of a novel design providing a band from ~700 MHz to ~4 GHz. The tests were successful and a system temperature of ~22 K was obtained over most of the band. Photo credit: John Sarkissian. |
