Extract

The Mount Stromio optical pulsar detection equipment is built around a commercial two-track tape recorder: one track records timing pulses, and the other the pulses from a photomultiplier (Peterson 1974). Because of the modest frequency range of the recorder, it has been necessary to introduce a scaler between the recorder and photomultiplier in order to cope with bright sources.
