CU radiometer update
After calibrating the radiometer at CU two weeks ago, we realized that some frequencies were unstable. We took the instrument to the manufacturer Radiometrics and they discovered that the microwave frequency synthesizer is failing, the output is about half the correct value, and now both the K-band and V-band receivers are not working due to low synth input. They estimated that this can be fixed within a week. If everything goes according to our plan, we might be able to install the radiometer at the BAO the second week of March (9-13 March).
