    Interesting.  This article contains:

    Elevation and azimuth tracking of a radio star was accomplished by sequential lobing of orthogonal pairs of antenna feeds, one pair in elevation and the other in azimuth.

    It seems to me that they actually measured the star's azimuth.  If that was indeed the case, does anyone know what they did with that piece of information?
