 //The XFFTS Monitor (on the xffts vnc) should be used to check the bandpass shapes. The figures show examples for different bandwidth. At least the general shape should be similar for all receivers. Top left: VLBA-IF 100 MHz, top right: VLBA-IF 500 MHz, lower left: Narrowband-IF (SB) 100 MHz, and lower right: Optical-IF 2 GHz.// //The XFFTS Monitor (on the xffts vnc) should be used to check the bandpass shapes.
