Abstract
A multidetector array to operate as UHE primary cosmic particle telesc ope at sea level is described. The directional characteristics of the telescope including the study of shower front curvature and time fluct uation of shower front particles for observation of the potential UHE discrete point sources of the northern hemisphere are presented togeth er with an estimation of errors in the measurements.
