Scientific paper

As in past years, the main activities in the year 2000 with the 20-meter Radiotelescope Wettzell have been concentrated on participation in geodetic and astrometric observing programs of the International Very Long Base Interferometry (VLBI) Service (IVS). Some technical improvements have been carried out during regular maintenance. A Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver has been placed on top of the radio telescope, right behind the secondary reflector for measuring deformations of the 20-meter antenna and for deriving elevation dependencies of the GPS antenna. A repetition of the local survey has been performed in order to control the ties of the reference point of the VLBI telescope to the other geodetic systems.
