Date18 September 1967
DescriptionSays that he was glad to have Dr Ruze's letter and to see that Dr Ruze is concerning himself 'with our interesting problems'. Says that he will give Dr Ruze the information he asks for and give his opinions on the issues Dr Ruze has raised. Goes on to say that 'I think that higher aperture efficiencies are possible with spherical than with parobolic reflectors, and believe that we should and could demonstrate this on a single polarization feed, but have difficulties peculiar to the dual polarization requirement. Of course I realize that this is at present only a conjecture'. Goes on to say more about this.
