RF Instrument Lab
From CSU-CHILL
Much of the RF instrumentation available at the CHILL facility was meant for use when troubleshooting the radar, and no dedicated lab space existed for a while. The addition of the new lab space allows CHILL staff and students from CSU to work on their respective projects with access to the newest instrumentation.
The table below lists some of the instruments available at the Facility.
