Tidbinbilla 70m Maintenance
The Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex at Tidbinbilla has a number of antennas, with the 70m DSS-43 the largest. DSS-43 is currently undergoing a once-a-decade Depot-Level-Maintenance period, which started on March 10th and is expected to end in January 2021. A key stage was reached recently with the installation of the new X-band (7--9 GHz) cone on the dish. Regular updates on progress are available from the CDSCC twitter feed.
