Extract

A 3 GHz maser from the Onsala Space Observatory, Sweden, is currently at Parkes on a long-term loan basis. So far, it has been used on the 64-m radio telescope for a two-week period of spectral-line observations in February 1979, providing a system sensitivity far superior to that previously available at the same frequency. The observed lines were the ground-state transitions of CH at 3264, 3335 and 3349 MHz, the 211 – 212 transition of H2CS at 3139 MHz, and the 211-212 transition of CH3CHO at 3195 MHz.
