Presented here are the results of simulations of the effects of various errors on the imaging capabilities of the compact (72 m) configuration of a 39 element homogeneous millimeter array using the mosaic algorithm to image sources larger than the primary beam. Included in the errors investigated to date are systematic and random pointing errors, Gaussian receiver and atmospheric noise, and primary beam errors. Various methods of quantifying the quality of the reconstructed image are also discussed.
