Chuck and I spent today working on antenna 13's X and K-band switched
power problems. We found nothing on the antenna to indicate why X-band
sync det voltage looks so high, but we did improve K-bands SD voltage.
It appears that we were overdriving the U/X converter input. We
actually installed 8 dB more attenuation into both LCP and RCP to get
reasonable signals through the system.
I wonder if K-band was working before, then what has changed? Anyway,
if someone tries K-band again, please let me know the results. If
anyone wants all the gory details, please contact myself or Chuck Kutz.
