We have observed the Vela pulsar for one year using a Phased Array Feed (PAF) receiver on the 12-metre antenna of the Parkes Test-Bed Facility. These observations have allowed us to investigate the stability of the PAF beam-weights over time, to demonstrate that pulsars can be timed over long periods using PAF technology and to detect and study the most recent glitch event that occurred on 12 December 2016. The beam-weights are shown to be stable to 1% on time scales on the order of three weeks. We discuss the implications of this for monitoring pulsars using PAFs on single dish telescopes.

Unlocking the hidden potential of pulsar astronomy
This review and feasibility study shows that compact radio receivers can detect bright pulsars for navigation, timing, randomness, and space weather applications, with a 4-meter dish potentially achieving 10 km self-l...
