 Against a radio image of the galactic center at 330 MHz, we plot the 1420 MHz ATA field of view (2.5 degree diameter) and three 10x3 arc minute beams in yellow. While sets of three SETI observations occur every few minutes for an hour or more, the entire field of view is imaged in nearly 3000 pixels and 1000 frequency channels. The field of view at 5000 MHz is shown in blue. Background Image Credit: N. E. Kassim, D. S. Briggs (NRL), J. Imamura (TJHSST), T. J. W. Lazio (NRL), T. N. LaRosa (Kennesaw State Univ.), & S. D.
