Robert W. Hartop Papers, 1964-1994.

Hartop apparently prepared the collection as a part of a presentation he made concerning his career on June 15, 1994, before he retired. It consists of 20 ten and a half by twelve-inch color and black and white overhead projection Viewgraphs of JPL still images with the prefixes 332, 333 and 335. The images from 1964-1994 are of a DSN 34-meter antenna, the Mars Station 210 ft. Antenna feedcone, 100 kW Diplexer Test with filter, XRO Feed Assembly and the TRI Cone XRO (X-band Receiver only). Also included are transparency notes and ten pages of photocopies of Hartop's publications during his thirty-four years at JPL.
