The installation of a solar radio spectrograph at the Nancay radioastronomy station allows viewing in the 110-469 MHz range and the detection of polarized signals. The radio emissions are received by a 6 m diam antenna equipped for automatic tracking and circular polarization. The system filters noise by means of a preamplifier, with a large impedance present in the antenna-preamplifier link. Intermodulation is prevented by a tree of diplexers followed by a mixer matrix. Frequency resolution functions at the level of 120 channels of 1 MHz bandwidth or 100 channels of 200 kHz bandwidth each, positioned anywhere over the total range of the instrument. Sensitivity is adjustable over a dynamic range of 0.02-50 dB.
