Abstract :
An antenna has been built for the purpose of studying radio astronomical phenomena at long wavelengths. The beamwidth of this antenna is 14 minutes E-W and 92 minutes N-S at a wavelength of 11.4 meters. Therefore, its resolution is comparable to that of present day arrays operating in the meter wavelength range and to that of large parabolas operating at decimeter and centimeter wavelengths.
