Description
The Kokee Park Geophysical Observatory's 12m is expected to see First
Light early 2016. A description of the integration and testing that
was performed at MIT Haystack Observatory before shipping
the signal chain is described. This is followed by a summary of the
teams work that had to occur before first light and the initial
results.
Beyond KPGO first light focuses on the commissioning summary followed
by the road to the second installation at McDonald Texas. Here the
focus shifts to the expected enhancements to the signal chain and retrofit plans for KPGO.
