Hi Doug,
One of its existing roles is that it forms part of the Long Baseline Array (LBA).
It is used in conjunction with the Compact Array at Narrabri along with
the dish at Mopra near Sidings Springs to create the Long Baseline.
Antennas at Ceduna and Hobart area added to the LBA to form the
VLBI array.
According to the announcement today, rather than being decommissioned,
Parkes is to operate largely remotely.
