eQ (extended Q-band) receiver is a receiver for NRO 45-m telescope with ultra wide bandwidth operating at 30-50 GHz. After encouraging system testing results in 2019, the installation plan has already been reviewed and approved in Apr. 2020. Unfortunately, it was delayed due to the pandemic. Now, a new plan has been accepted by NRO aiming to install the receiver in autumn/winter 2021. The talk will summarize the receiver performance and present the new installation plan.
