Abstract
- We present projected Fast Radio Burst detection rates from surveys carried out using a set of hypothetical close-packed array telescopes. The cost efficiency of such a survey falls at least as fast as the inverse square of the survey frequency. There is an optimum array element effective area in the range 0 to 25 $\rm{m^2}$. If the power law index of the FRB integrated source count versus fluence $\alpha = d ~ln R/d ~ln F > -1$ the most cost effective telescope layout uses individual dipole elements, which provides an all-sky field of view. If $\alpha
