Currently, it is only possible to record both bands in parallel for pulsar observations (timing and search mode), but not yet for continuum or spectroscopic observations. * Usable / useful continuum bands are e.g. 1.405-1.415 GHz, 1.66-1.67 GHz, 4.7-5.0 GHz, 5.3-5.6 GHz. ==== Available receiver versions (for OBSINP) ==== ^Version^Description^Details^ |EDDPOL | spectro-polarimeter backend for continuum observations in the lower band|with 64k channels | |EDDPOL3G | spectro-polarimeter backend for continuum observations in the upper band|with 64k channels | |EDD_PULSAR_TIMING| pulsar folding mode observations | coherent dedispersion, configurable channels and subints | |EDD_PULSAR_SEARCH| pulsar search mode observations | coherent filterbank, configurable channels and time samples (down to 32$\mu$s) |
