Parkes telescope receivers
The 64-m Parkes telescope will soon be equipped with a brand-new ultra-wide band receiver covering a frequency range of 0.7 - 4.0 GHz (middle, right). And, after commissioning the Phased-Array Feed (PAF) - bought by the Max-Planck Institute for Radioastronmie (MPIfR) in Bonn for installation on the 100-m Effelsberg telescope (top, right) - we are keen to obtain funding to build a cyrogenically cooled PAF (bottom, right) for wide-field mapping.

The Parkes Forum is held at 3pm this afternoon.
