Scientific paper

A phased array, electrically steerable radio telescope, with a total collecting area of 18 acres has been constructed for the purpose of remotely sensing electron density irregularity structure in the solar wind. The radio telescope will locate, map and track large scale features of the solar wind, such as streams and blast waves, by monitoring a large grid of natural radio sources subject to rapid intensity fluctuation (interplanetary scintillation) caused by the irregularity structure. This report is an account of progress to date on construction and operation of the telescope, observations, and initial scientific results.
