- SiempreViernes 8y agoI think these are more dreams of future achievements than anything else; they also list phased arrays and interferometers but there is nothing like it on the webpage of the project.
- dkozel 8y agoThe Open Source Radio Telescope project hasn't setup any phased array setups yet, but the Canadian Centre for Experimental Radio Astronomy uses GNU Radio for it's phased array receivers looking at pulsars. http://www.ccera.ca http://www.ccera.ca

The Array Operations Center for the EVLA (Very Large Array) and the VLBA (Very Long-Baseline Array) are on the New Mexico Tech campus; we had a lot of radio-interferometer people in town.
