Abstract
On 30 September 2013, the opening ceremony of SRT has signed the contractual ending of the instrumental commissioning of the Sardinia Radio Telescope. In February 2014 it has been completed also the “fine tuning process” aimed at defining the first optimizations parameters needed to make calibrated radio astronomical observations. Since then, the final Astronomical Validation, that was just started in parallel with the previous activities, has taken the lead of the user's allocated time. At the time of the real presentation in August we expect to be able to present the experimental quantitative results of the commissioning that at the time of this writing are still under analysis.
