Resumen
The radio spectroscopy has became a fundamental tool to study astronomical objets at the microwave band. Therefore, the design and construction of instruments with high spectral resolution, low power consumption and compact size for easy handle and transport are necessary. Here we present the design and the tests of an acousto-optical spectrometer for use in solar radio astronomy and for variability studies of cosmic masers sources with a 5 meter antenna (RT5) which is being reinstalled at the Sierra Negra site. We present the first evaluations of the performance of the components and the laboratory assembly.
