By this means it became possible to observe fluctuations of solar outbursts not only as a function of time, but also as a funtion of frequency. Astronomers hoped these records would help explain the mechanism which created the intense signals...

Operations ended in September, however, because rain water leaked into the equipment at the focus of the giant dish, and caused the receiver to mal-function. Once this equipment is made watertight, work at the station should proceed rapidly. Dr. Maxwells hopes to make extensive studies of individual sources of celestial radiation.
