YTO = Tuned Freq + 5.1225 GHz
YTO = Tuned Freq + 322.5 GHz
YTO = (Tuned Freq + 322.5 MHz) / 2
YTO = (Tuned Freq + 322.5 MHz) / 4
YTO = (Tuned Freq + 322.5 MHz) / 2
Power Level is ~ +3 dBm in Dual-Loop mode and ~ -20 dBm in Single-Loop mode.
When autocoupled, spans > 10 MHz are Single-Loop spans
and < 10 MHz are Dual-Loop spans.
The Tuning Equation below shows the relationship between the YTO frequency (1st LO) and
the Tuned Frequency.
