Abstract
The European VLBI Network (EVN) is involved in a number of projects to enhance its performance and capabilities. The gradual implementation of the MkIV recording standard has introduced a number of new possibilities. As well as wider bandwidth recording, allowing the detection of ever fainter continuum sources, the system has improved flexibility for doing spectral line VLBI. This is especially true when combined with the very large correlation capacity that the EVN MkIV data processor offers. This correlator, at the Joint Institute for VLBI in Europe (JIVE), Dwingeloo, is now providing the main correlator capacity for the EVN, and its capabilities are still being upgraded.
