  • Set pointing : 0 0
  • Set Focus : -2.4 mm
  • df (Frequency modulation is 10kHz)
  • Cryostat cold at 93 mK.
  • Configuration of resonances for both arrays similar to yesterday.
  • Base frequencies changed to 1.322000 @2mm, 1.956670 @1mm
  • Freq/bin: 1.869 kHz
  • dac: 3dB
  • Attenuation HF: 16 and 3 dB
  • Modulation frequency: 10 kHz
