-//Last update: ​17. Feb. 2017 - AK//+//Last update: ​see bottom right//
  
-All secondary focus receivers are up and running; the 7mm system has only one polarization working (RCP). 
  
-Prime focus receivers ​currently ​available: P210-7P200, P10, P170 (will be removed soon).+**Receivers ​currently ​installed at the prime focus:**\\ 
 +^Receiver^Status^ 
 +|P210-7|ok| 
 +|P200/180|ok| 
 +|P170 / UBB|currently under maintenance|
  
-Please note, that the S45 receiver (aka C+-band) is still under commissioningIf you want to use it, please let us know beforehand.+Please note, that there is new strong RFI at ~1475 MHz, influencing 
 +also the protected ​band. The staff of the observatory is currently  
 +investigating possible measures.

 +|S130|not available | 
 +|S110|ok, wider bandwidth with the new EDD system - please contact staff|

-A major repair of the telescope track will take place between April 4 May 12. During that time, +The S-band has recently heavily been occupied by RFI (due to LTE). Observations with the 11cm-receiver should use the 8-bank polarimeter or the new spectro-polarimeter (please contact staff).\\
-operations will be significantly restricted. +
- +
-During Jul 5 - Sep 1, our usual summer works will be done (telescope painting / corrosion protection). +
-In this time, the time between 0800-1900 hours on Mo-Fr will be unavailable for observations.+
