We present results from a first attempt to mitigate radio frequency interference in real-time during astronomical measurements with a phased array feed on the 64 m Parkes radio telescope. Suppression of up to 20 dB was achieved despite errors in estimating the interference spatial signature. Best results were achieved in the clean excision of a narrowband and stationary clock signal that originates from the receiver's digital back-end system. We also contribute a method to interpolate valid beamformer weights at interference-affected channels. Correct initial beam weights are required to avoid suppressing the desired signal.
