Yes, each station should normally have the same number of antennas
which are dual pol. So each pol gets digitised and then we intend to
just track a source in the main beam in the first instance, and then
move to beam forming.
We are still investigating the possibility of fewer channels per
station but the maximum will be 48.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up.

Yes, you are absolutely right. I have had numerous conversations
with Prof Rogers about building a new Deuterium focused array in
the Southern Hemisphere and we found out that the scientific
contributions that the instrument would be extremely valuable.

So, when you say 48 channels, you're talking 48 sky channels
rather than 48 spectral channels, and you want to beam-form like they
do at Haystack?

Hi,
Please find attached the User Requirement. The bandwidth is
actually only 250KHz
Cheers,

Are you envisaging an array, like the D1 telescope at Haystack?

Hi all,
We are looking at building a telescope in Mauritius
which is called the Mauritius Deuterium Telescope, MDT
for short. As the name suggests it is a Deuterium
focused experiment. We have planned for a pathfinder
station to be built for the end of this year and had in
mind the SNAP boards for the digital back-end. We were
set to buy four SNAPs by the end of next month but a
sudden slash in funding has put a dent in our plans. I
was wondering if anyone has any unused SNAPs that we
can get off their hands at a reduced price. Currently
one SNAP is sitting at $3500 from Digicom. Anything
below $3000 will greatly help us. We will obviously be
extremely grateful for donations. Hope to have some
positive feedback from some of you.
Kind Regards,
Vinand Prayag
Do you have a pointer to a project description?
Why such high bandwidth if you're looking at Deuterium?
