  • Abstract
    Design considerations and performance characteristics of The Ohio State University 360-foot radio telescope are discusssed. The telescope is well suited for precision position and intensity measurements at frequencies from 30 to 2000 Mc. The beamwidths expected at 2000 Mc are about 11 by 30 minutes of arc. Factors involved in determining the antenna temperature are considereal, and an estimate is made of the expected temperature.
