  2. Construction • Every item shown came separate. • We built this from the ground up on top of the York College rooftop • Connections were made from a TV studio to the telescope.

  3. Commissioning • We installed the SRT software on a designated laptop • We aligned the telescope by tracking the Sun. • We rotated the electronic noise calibrator to maximize its power coupling to the receiver. • We observed the HI spectrum from the well-known source S8 . • We installed VNC (Virtual Network Computing) software onto the main laptop to control it from anywhere in the York College network. • We measured beam dimensions observing the Sun

  4. Data Analysis Beam width measurement of azimuth and elevation scans. This chart shows the hydrogen spectrum from the source S8.
