I am in the process of calibrating AS55's shot noise, and I noticed that the AS55 PD input to the demod board was only finger-tight. I then checked all of the other SMA connections in the set of RF PD demod boards, and found several more that were loose, including all of the REFL55 connections. This is no good!!!! RF connections need to be tightened! I went through and tightened all of the offending connections with my personal Snap-on SMA wrench. |
