A total of eight 6-m telescopes comprise the array, which will cover the frequency range of 180-900 GHz. All eight telescopes have been deployed and are operational. First scientific results utilizing the three receiver bands at 230, 345, and 690 GHz have been obtained and are presented in the accompanying papers.en-USinstrumentation: interferometerssubmillimetertelescopesJournal Article2017-02-2820042017-04-0710.1086/423245
