DESCRIPTION: \n\n \n\nDespite the all-dominating Corona Virus crisis we 
 are pleased to announce the RadioNet Technical Dissemination Workshop on n
 ew trends in Radio Astronomy instrumentation. These two days of virtual co
 ming together\, presenting new ideas by zoom\, and discussing future trend
 s via web-chat will take place on September\, 21st and 22nd 2020 organized
  by the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn (Germany). This w
 orkshop will take place in any case\, organized explicitly as a virtual ev
 ent.\n\nThis meeting is the last in a series of technical workshops combin
 ing several aspects of engineering and operational issues at radio observa
 tories all over Europe and beyond. It provides the unique opportunity to c
 ross border the different communities to see what ‘the others’ are doi
 ng and planning and enhance communication between engineers\, scientists\,
  and operators.\n\nThe Workshop is fully sponsored (no participation fees)
  and organized by the EU Consortium RadioNet within the Horizon2020 Progra
 m of the European Commission and continues a very successful series of eng
 ineering workshops and telescope operation - oriented meetings organized w
 ithin the Sixth and Seventh Framework Programme. Engineers and scientists 
 working at various observatories to get and keep their radio telescopes ru
 nning are welcome to present their interesting projects in an oral present
 ation tailored to a virtual presentation. Due to internal visitor restrict
 ions and the purely virtual format of the workshop we won’t be able to s
 how poster presentations.\n\nFor information on past meetings in this seri
 es see\nhttp://www.radionet-eu.org/fp7wiki/doku.php?id=na:engineering:ew\n
 \nSOME TOPICS OF THE WORKSHOP:\n\n• Reuse of existing infrastructure for
  and beyond radio astronomy\n\n• Reuse of existing instrumentation techn
 ology\n\n• Future trends in instrumentation\n\n• Stunning results from
  RadioNet JRAs\n\n• New approaches towards unthought ideas\n\nThe worksh
 op will start on Monday\, September 21 at noon and end on Tuesday\, Septem
 ber 22 at ~ 6 pm. Unfortunately\, a common social dinner as we had it for 
 many years will not be possible due to distancing rules in Germany. Instea
 d\, we will have a virtual social coming together with individual small ta
 lk and some entertainment.\n\nThe meeting will be informal and should offe
 r lots of time for discussions. Each presentation is limited to a maximum 
 of about 30 minutes with some time for discussion included. The abstracts 
 will be made available as a workshop worksheet per e-mail in .pdf format.\
