The China-Argentina Radio Telescope (CART) has a diameter of 40 m, and eight working bands including L, S/X, C, Ku, K, Ka and Q. The S/X dual band cryogenic receivers and the dual beam Q band cryogenic receivers are among the first to be installed on CART starting from the testing phase. CART is a milestone joint-project between China and Argentina. It is located at the CESCO Observatory of the National University of San Juan of Argentina, and will be the largest single dish and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) unit in Latin America. It is expected to have important synergies with LLAMA and the Argentine-German Geodetic Observatory, and will participate in and contribute to major international VLBI campaigns such as IVS, Square Killometre Array Very Long Baseline Interferometry and maybe also Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array in the future.
