The collecting area of the telescope is a 64-m diameter paraboloid (the dish). The surface is high precision aluminium millimetre wavepanels to a diameter of 17-m (for operation to 43 GHz), then perforated aluminium plate out to 45-m, and rectangular galvanised steel 5/16-inch mesh for the remainder of the surface. The aerial cabin, which houses feeds and receiver equipment, is supported by a tripod.

The Observatory is part of the Australia Telescope National Facility (ATNF) a division of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO).
