Introduction

In MMA Memo No. 177, Holdaway presented a sensitivity comparison for various LSA/MMA collaboration options. Since the beginning of 1999, the collaboration has become a reality as the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA). As the parameters describing the array have changed somewhat since the earlier memo, we investigate here the sensitivity of the 64 element array of 12m antennas which is the current baseline for the ALMA.
