There was a free hour this morning so I looked at the newly
installed Q band in antenna 23.
What I found was that formatters in all the DTS modules had
been mysteriously turned off and, as Rob has reported, the
last command sent to them was 'on'. B and D recovered upon
sending power on to the formatter. A and C required more
work. I had to turn of sampler and formatter, reset the
power supply card and turn the formatter and sampler on
again.
With that out of the way Q band did not fringe. There were
reasonable total power and sync detector signals at the backend,
but no hint of correlated signal even in a narrow BW.
Initial guesses have been installed for focus, collimation and
the BD attenuators. More work will have to wait for next week.
