DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dr. ALLISON\, Patrick (Ohio State University)\nThe A
 skaryan Radio Array (ARA) is an ultrahigh energy radio neutrino detector c
 urrently in the prototype and development phase. A testbed to examine the 
 RF environment was deployed in the 2010-2011 polar season and is currently
  operating. A prototype ARA station is due to be deployed in 2011-2012. Th
 e testbed consisted of custom digitization and triggering for 8 antennas\,
  digitized at 1 and 2 GSa/s\, along with a commercial off-the-shelf single
 -board computer. The prototype ARA station\, with 16 wider spaced antennas
 \, presents additional challenges\, with digitization at 3.2 GSa/s\, and r
 equiring an analog buffer of approximately 10 microseconds. The design and
  performance of the testbed\, as well as the design of the prototype stati
 on\, will be presented.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contributionDisplay.py?co
