Abstract

A 220–280 GHz prototype SIS receiver system is currently being constructed, which will be tested on the JCMT in January 1989. The prototype receiver will act as a test-bed for developing a dualchannel common-user SIS receiver for the JCMT, tunable from 280–360 GHz, in a collaborative project between UKC, RAL and the Herzberg Institute of Astrophysics, Ottawa.
