Nearly all of the exciting discoveries in radio astronomy have come from new instruments or techniques which have provided new frequencies, high sensitivity, higher spatial or time resolution, or improved image quality. Since the last General Assembly a number of major new radio telescopes have been completed while construction of others have only just begun. At the same time telescopes of the more distant future are still in the conceptual stage. This paper summarizes a full-day meeting of Commission 40 on recently completed radio telescopes, new radio telescopes now under construction, and radio telescopes of the future.
