Section II (Radio Astronomy) of the Scientific Directorate has started a process aimed at harmonizing and coordinating efforts and resources in radio astronomy. This process includes a review of the existing and future radio astronomical front-end receivers for the INAF radio telescope facilities. A specific Working Group to pursue this topic has been nominated by the Head of Section II of the Scientific Directorate. This workshop is intended to report the outcomes of the WG work. A preliminary review of the working group findings and recommendations has been produced and has now been updated to include feedback from the community following the workshop. You can see here the final review.

The workshop was held at the INAF headquarters in Monte Mario on March 21st 2017 from 10 AM to 4 PM. The deadline for the registration was February 28th.
