Scientific paper

Frank Gardner, who died in 2002, aged 78, was one of the driving forces in the early years of the Parkes Radio Telescope, and it is hard to separate Frank from any of the early discoveries. An inventive receiver engineer who turned radio astronomer with the commissioning of the Parkes Telescope, Frank was a pioneer in radio polarization and spectral line observations. The present authors both benefited greatly from their association with him. In this paper we outline those early scientific discoveries and tell some of the tales that reveal his character.
