Abstract :
In the Ukraine there are some very advanced radio astronomical techniques for every frequency range. A great amount of data has been obtained with the world biggest instruments in the decametric range-radio telescope UTR-2 and VLBI system URAN. Active work is being carried out on the antenna RT-70 for centimetric and decimetric ranges and on the antenna RT-22 for the millimetric range. Existing scientific experience and technical potential with close international collaboration provide great opportunities for further development of all frequencies of radio astronomy in the Ukraine
