The Large Millimetre Telescope (LMT) is Mexico's largest ever investment in a science facility. The project proposed here will help train Mexican astronomers in the high frequency radio techniques necessary to build receivers for use on LMT. This training will be carried out by converting an existing "SHIRM" receiver previously used for Earth observations for use on the LMT for astronomical observations. The skills transferred to the Mexican community during this project have wide ranging application to other research and commercial applications which have direct impact on development. Examples include atmospheric and ground-use monitoring, and active sensors in a range of applications including on cars, an area in which Mexico has a large manufacturing sector. This proposal is the parent of the RAL Space Proposal ASTEC(R01425/RAL)

大型毫米望远镜（LMT）是墨西哥有史以来最大的科学设施投资。这里提出的项目将帮助培训墨西哥天文学家在建造用于LMT的接收器所必需的高频无线电技术。该培训将通过将先前用于地球观测的现有“SHIRM”接收器转换为用于LMT的天文观测来进行。在该项目期间向墨西哥社区转让的技能广泛应用于对发展有直接影响的其他研究和商业应用。例子包括大气和地面使用监测，以及包括汽车在内的一系列应用中的有源传感器，墨西哥在汽车领域拥有庞大的制造业。该提案是RAL空间提案ASTEC（R01425/RAL）的前身。
