====== 4.5cm broad band C/X secondary focus receiver (4000-9300 MHz) ====== This is a broad-band receiver with two orthogonal linear polarizations (at a 45°-angle with the horizon). The receiver (in most setups simultaneously) delivers 4 basebands (each with two polarizations): ^Baseband^Center Frequency^Bandwidth^Comment^ |1|5.250 GHz| 2500 MHz| beware of strong RFI at frequencies < 4.5 GHz!| |2|6.750 GHz| 2500 MHz| | |3|6.668 GHz| 200 MHz| for methanol observations| |4|4.829 GHz| 200 MHz| for formaldehyde observations| ==== Calibration Information ==== ^ Frequency [GHz] ^ Channel ^ Polarisation ^ Tcal [K] ^ Tsys [K] ^ Sensitivity [K/Jy] ^ SEFD [Jy] ^ Aperture Eff.
