AMiBA visit 2005 September

This visit was to review the progress of AMiBA, and to plan for the next year or so of set-up and tests. I wrote a long document to point out issues and to lay plans as a result of the visit.

The support structure is made up of six pistons: details can be seen more clearly in the following pictures.

The small reflectors for low-resolution mapping are already available. One example can be seen below.

All pictures by Haida Liang (who appears in some of them).
