Setup Notes
Hobart
Experiment | Agilent | LO (SMY) | Tone (SML) | DAS Profile | Disks | Notes |
vc138 & v252w | 16600 MHz | 636 MHz | 892.2 or 929.375 MHz | VSOP_HO.PRO | ATNFV009A | |
vc139 & v434e | 7800 HMz | 820 MHz | 227.3 MHz | VSOP.PRO | UTASV002A | Frequency setup copied from past logs. Slightly different to that recommended by Coherence.sh |
vc140 & v252x | 14000 MHz | 777 & 809 MHz | 841.4 & 844.6 MHz | VSOP.PRO | ATNF016B | vc140 recorded to ATNFV009A (1/4/2011) |
vc141 & v271h | - | | | MARK 5 profile | MARK 5 disk | #5 experiment |
vt17a | | | | 64MHz_[nf].pro | (CURT003B - eVLBI so not needed?) | Tests. Schedule files not yet available. eVLBI so disk should not be needed. |
vc142 & v430a | [pending frequency information from ATNF wiki] | | | 64MHz_[nf].pro | UTASV001A | v430a replaces v329c. note cannot get coherence tones through 64MHz profile... |
vc143a/b & v255n | 12200 MHz | 810/468 MHz (LO1), 810 MHz (LO2) | | VSOP.PRO | CURT003B if free. Otherwise CURTV001B | |
Nota Bene - The tones must be injected via the vertex radiator, using the "LHC 22 GHz" setting on the dial selector.
