Successful FAT for the BKG Wettzell


We are very happy to announce a successful FAT for our most recent project with Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie (BKG) to equip one of their antennas at the Wettzell site.

 

BKG is a major contributor to the international VLBI community, amongst other activities.

The bespoke cryogenic low noise receiver was designed specifically to meet their stringent requirements for low noise reception, maintainability and system lifetime.

We are pleased to announce that the system passed all of our tests with flying colors. It will soon be shipped to the antenna site for installation and commissioning, supported by members of our team.

Many thanks to all Celestia Callisto team members, PM Davide Imbert, COO Rémi Rayet, our RF engineers and electronics teams for their hard work and dedication.
