Abstract:

The Long Wavelength Array (LWA) is a new low frequency (20-80 MHz) telescope being built by the Southwest Consortium in New Mexico. I will discuss a few of the science drivers for low frequency science and present the first-light data from the Long Wavelength Demonstrator Array (LWDA) which has been running at the VLA site since October 2006.
