| Abstract: |
The early days of VLBI are discussed, with emphasis on the fifteen experiments performed in the U.S. and Canada in 1967. Some key technical ideas are described that influenced the development of the technique, including digital fringe rotation, bandwidth synthesis, spectral phase referencing, phase closure and self-calibration, and water vapor radiometry. |
