Plans are currently being made to carry out a comprehensive, all-sky search for radio signals of extraterrestrial origin. The survey will employ the Goldstone tracking station near Barstow, California, and other sites in the northern and southern hemispheres. The principal parameters of this survey are given in Table 1. In preparation for this search, we have constructed a radio spectrum surveillance system (RSSS), and made a series of measurements of the RFI environment at the Goldstone-Venus tracking station. We describe in this paper the receiving system used (Crow et al. 1985), and the results of a low-sensitivity survey performed during February 16-24,1987.
