As part of my project, a report will be written describing the work done on the telescope during the year, some radio astronomy theory as well as some radio telescopy theory, and will also be a manual for the operation of the telescope. I will be making notes on relevant material as the year progresses, which will eventually be made into my reporr. The notes will be presented here on the web site, and so will the finished report near the end of the year. My first version of the project's abstract has now been written, and you can read it here, in either Postscript or DVI format.
