Several significant changes to the OVRO Solar Array are underway in preparation for the coming solar maximum in the year 2000. The array currently consists of 5 antennas with a maximum baseline of about 670 m. By mid-2000, two additional antennas will be operating, with a maximum baseline of about 1250 m, nearly doubling the spatial resolution (to 5'' at 10 GHz). The number of baselines recorded typically during the previous solar maximum was 7. A new data system, coupled with the additional antennas, will allow us to record 21 baselines for a factor of three improvement in imaging. The new data system, which is already in place, offers many additional advantages in ease of use of the data, as well as improved calibration. In concert with the HESSI (High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager) team, we plan to make the OVRO data and the IDL-based analysis software widely available via the World Wide Web. The current state of these improvements is discussed.
