Here are the latest Ka-Band Tcal values. It includes the two newest 
Ka-Band receivers now on Ant 15 & 8 and superceeds the table I sent out 
on 26 Feb 2009.

New Installations (to be added to the database):
-----------------------------------------------
                    33.535 GHz       33.585 GHz
Rx S/N   Ant #    ----Tcal----     ----Tcal----
                    LCP    RCP       LCP    RCP
------   -----    --K--  --K--     --K--  --K--
   09      EA08     4.18   4.15      4.06   4.07
   10      EA15     3.94   3.88      3.75   3.72

I've also attached the combined plots of the Receiver Temperature and 
Axial Ratio measurements for the first 10 Ka-Band receivers on the Array.

Note that A#09 on Ant 8 was cross-polarized and the IF outputs from the 
receiver were subsequently swapped. I've switched the Tcals in the table 
already to account for the swap.

Ken, I assume you still want the 2 default frequencies with only 50 MHz 
separation)?
