Abstract
The LBA (Long-Baseline Array) is an ad-hoc network of radio telescopes within Australia and is the only VLBI array in the Southern Hemisphere. Since 2004 all experiments have been recorded using standard computer hard-disks, replacing the aging tape based S2 system. The recorder developed for this, the LBADR, comprises largely of commercial off-the-shelf components and is closeley related to the PC-EVN system
