Abstract
In November 1980 the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft adopted plans submitted by the SFB 78 to develop the Satellite Observation Station Wettzell into a fundamental geodetic station for global geodynamic programs. The most important step towards fulfilling these plans was to build a dedicated geodetic radiotelescope for Very Long Baseline and Satellite Interferometry. The telescope with a diameter of 20 m has been designed for optimal stability and will be equipped with a modern Mk III VLBI terminal as well as a hydrogen maser. The installation of the new radiotelescope which will then be available for dedicated geodetic and geodynamic observing programs was scheduled for May to December 1982; routine operations commenced late in 1983.
