The first observation of rf heating in a reversed field pinch (RFP) using the electron Bernstein wave (EBW) has been demonstrated on Madison Symmetric Torus (MST). The design of the RF heating system used in this experiment is described. Klystron and antenna limitations are examined during launch into the plasma.
