Abstract
The new Australian geodetic VLBI network operated by the University of Tasmania (UTAS) started regular observations in October, 2010. Three 12-meter "Patriot" radio telescopes are dedicated to the improvement of the celestial and terrestrial reference frames in the southern hemisphere. We present first results from the analysis of an eight-month set of geodetic VLBI data. The data were processed within a global VLBI solution by the least squares collocation method using the OCCAM software. The geodetic positions of the AuScope radio telescopes were estimated with accuracy less than 10 millimetres, and the first sign of their motion due to tectonic plate movement was indicated.
