Abstract :
This paper outlines the challenge of practical EMC measurements on a large electronic system destined for a radio astronomy observatory. The digital receiver package of the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is used as a case study and progress towards meeting what is probably one of the world´s most stringent EMC requirement is described.
