Abs tractA large area (1 m2) medium energy telescope for gamma ray astronomy is discussed. This telescope utilizes the double scattering of gamma rays between two scintillator arrays with directionial discrimination by means of time-of-flight. The first and second arrays consist of a series of plastic and NaI(TZ) scintillators, respectively, in the shape of long (1 m) linear elements viewed by photomultiplier tubes at both ends. The lateral position of the interaction in the plastic is determined by timing and in
