Scientific paper

Observations of the icy Galilean satellites, performed during 1987-1991 with the Goldstone 3.5 cm system and the Arecibo 13 cm system, show significant enhancements in the knowledge of the satellite's radar properties. The most prominent radar features are tentatively identified with Galileo Regio and the Valhalla basin. Estimates of echo Doppler frequencies show Callisto to be lagging its ephemeris by 200 +/- 50 km.
