Letter from Thomas Gold to Dr Peter B Boyce, National Science Foundation, 1800 G Street, N.W., Washington DC Apologises for the oversight of the enclosed proposal, which arrived jus before he left for oversees, adn then failed to come to his attention in the confusion of his move (for a year) to Mount Holyoke. In case his comments are still of value, he gives his reasons for supporting an instrument of that nature which would be of value to radioastronomy. 30 September 1975
