Last update: 4. April 2017 - AK

Today, a major repair of the telescope track started. That will last till May 12. Until April 18, limited observations will be possible (Azimuth range ~ 220-280 deg), after that no telescope movement at all will be possible.

All secondary focus receivers are up and running; the 7mm system has only one polarization working (RCP).

Prime focus receivers currently available: P210-7, P200, P10, P22, P3.

Please note, that the S45 receiver (aka C+-band) is still under commissioning. If you want to use it, please let us know beforehand.

Outlook:

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.
