This is the setup from n3274 ! Note that there are only 3 stations that could effectively use ! this S band setup - PT, MK, and FD. 2.2-2.4 GHz filters will ! affect the first 3 channels of S band at all the other stations. ! Also note that the X band sequence goes slightly above the nominal ! top of X band at 8880. This, however, will probably not be a ! problem. ! The 7.9 GHz LO is inside the receiver band which is not a very ! good idea if it can be avoided. But it is not so far inside ! that there will be issues with the unwanted sideband. It seems ! to be working, so perhaps it is not too bad. ! new version: 20130802-WFB: better S-band setini = rdbe.sx / pcal = '1MHz' dbe = 'rdbe_pfb' firstlo = 2900,2900,2900,2900,2900,2900, 7900,7900,7900,7900,7900,7900,7900,7900,7900,7900 fe = '13cm', '4cm', '13cm', '4cm' synth = 7.9, 2.9, 15.9 nchan = 16 bbfilt = 32 bits = 2 sideband = L,L,L,L,L,L, L,L, L,L,L,L, L,L,L,L netside = U,U,U,U,U,U, L,L, L,L,L,L, L,L,L,L ifchan = A,A,A,A,A,A, B,B, B,B,B,B, B,B,B,B pol = R,R,R,R,R,R, R,R, R,R,R,R, R,R,R,R bbc = 1,2,3,4,5,6, 7,8,9,10,11,12, 13,14,15,16 bbsyn = 848, 816, 784, 688, 656, 624, 560, 592, 624, 688, 752, 816, 880, 944, 976, 1008 / endset / !
