Abstract :
Millimeter wave receivers are discussed from the point of view of applications of line astronomy. A heterodyne bolometer system is described which has a noise temperature of 300/spl deg/K at 230 GHz. It is expected that these receivers will extend the range of radio line astronomy to about 500 GHz.
