Abstract:

The observatory is operated for the Air Force Technical Applications Center AFTAC under the sponsorship of the advanced Research Projects Agency ARPA as part of program VELA UNIFORM. During these first three months of operation, routine analysis and operation of the station has continued and specific research studies on ambient noise, signal-to-noise ratios and detection capability have been initiated. In addition, a digital multichannel filter unit is being built by TI for installation early in 1966. This first quarterly progress report reviews the analysis, engineering and research tasks which have been performed or initiated during May, June and July of 1965.
