| Three ASKAP core antennas pointing |
| by Tobias Westmeier (ICRAR/UWA) |
| ASA participants inspect some of the ASKAP
core antennas with both Mk1 and Mk2 Phased-Array Feeds (PAFs) shown pointing
at the same source for the very first time. The three foreground antennas are
(from left to right) No 3 (BETA), No 1 (BETA) and No 2 (Mk2 PAF). The antenna
in the background is No 7. The Mk2 PAFs have overall much better performance
than the Mk1 PAFs and will be rolled out on all ASKAP antennas.
