The DRAO 26-m Telescope is equipped with receivers covering 1350 to 1750 MHz and 6.6 GHz.
All receivers have two polarizations, connected to a digital spectrometer.
The main areas of application of the L-band receiver are H1 and OH spectroscopy. Recombination line observations are also possible. The 6.6-GHz receiver has been built for the maser line of methanol.
