The Multi Telescope Radio Linked Interferometer (MTRLI) produces high quality maps of radio sources with resolutions varying from 1 arc s to 0.02 arc s depending on the frequency of operation. The obvious astronomical use of the instrument is for the mapping of powerful extragalactic radio sources to investigate the physical processes within them, but it will also have the capability to map galactic line as well as galactic continuum sources. Maps are presented which were made at 408 MHz and are all of extragalactic sources. They illustrate the ability of MTRLI to map at low frequencies the steep spectrum emission which tends to be overlooked with existing synthesis instruments which have to work at much higher frequencies to obtain the same resolution.
