During observation, the filter and ULO settings have to be selected according to the observation frequency (see block diagram).In March 2007 the LNA was replaced by an InP-HEMT MMIC-amplifier designed for the 9mm receiver. Therefore the noise figure at low frequencies is not ideal.This system is part of the Primary Focus Multi Frequency Box #1 (PM 1).
