Fourth Japanese 7-m Antenna Installed at AOS

On October 30, the fourth Japanese 7-m antenna was transported from the Operations Support Facility at 2900 m asl to the Array Operations Site (AOS) at 5000 m asl. Currently, there are 8 of 16 Japanese antennas (four 7-m antennas and four 12-m antennas) at the AOS.

The picture shows four 7-m antennas and one 12-m antenna. The fourth 7-m antenna is second from right. It would be difficult to count four 7-m antennas in the photo because one 7-m antenna is behind the third from right. [Photographed by Joaquin Collao (NAOJ)]
