Abstract

Our experiment to create a mobile VLBI radio telescope has reached a stage to develop and test its prototype which is based on the mechanical part of a ground-based satellite communication station. This paper presents our main solutions to transform the antenna system of the satellite communication station into the antenna system of the VLBI radio telescope. We give our experimental accuracy estimation of the antenna system pointed to an observable radio source.
