Instrument Functions: A - L
2.8.6.1 18-26.5 GHz (K)
Selects K band (mixing harmonic
−6). Displays the start and stop frequencies for that
particular band. Other start/stop frequencies are available as long as they are within the
-6 harmonic band.
Key Path:
Input/Output, Input Mixer, Ext Mix Band
Remote Command:
Example: MIX:BAND K
2.8.6.2 26.5-40 GHz (A)
Selects A band (mixing harmonic
−8). Displays the start and stop frequencies for that
particular band. Other start/stop frequencies are available as long as they are within the
-8 harmonic band.
NOTE Bands A, Q, U, and V are available with both preselected and unpreselected
mixers. The sign of the harmonic value changes with the mixer type. For
example with A Band preselected mixer, the harmonic value is 8 while the
unpreselected value is -8.

2.8.6.3 33-50 GHz (Q)
Selects Q band (mixing harmonic
−10). Displays the start and stop frequencies for that
particular band. Other start/stop frequencies are available as long as they are within the
-10 harmonic band.
