The remains of the progenitor stars of supernovae are likely to have compact radio structure and steep radio spectra, as in the cases of pulsars and SS433. An instrument which is sensitive to compact structure at low frequencies is therefore suitable for a search for new objects. The radio-linked interferometer comprising the MK IA 76m telescope and the Defford 25m telescope situated 127 km to the south has a resolution of ∼1 arcsec at 408 MHz and is ideal for such a task.
