A 'spectral sweep', with 125 kHz resolution, was done Friday, and L,
S, C, and X bands.
A quick perusal of the L-band data shows a new RFI birdie, never
seen before (to my knowledge):
1444.50 MHz. This is seen on *all* baselines except those connected
to antenna 1 -- which was at the end of the west arm at the time. All
others are in D configuration. The birdie is well resolved (a few MHz
wide), and is *very* strong. The fact that is is not seen on ea01, and
is seen on all others, strongly suggests a local origin.
One other observation: The well-known 1408 MHz birdie is on many
baselines, but is *especially* strong on those connected to ea13.
More to follow ...
