lo receivers, stages, on|off

Switch one or more local oscillator stages on or off.

Arguments:
Receivers ant
The set of receivers whose oscillators are to be controlled.
LoStages stages
The oscillator stages to be enabled or disabled. This is a the set of one or more of:
  • if - The local-oscillator IF-monitor output.
  • sweep - The sawtooth used to acquire phase-lock.
  • gunn - The gunn-diode.
  • all - All of the above stages.
SwitchState state
The desired state of the selected stages: on or off.

Example:
The following example turns on all except the sweep stages of all local oscillators.
 lo all, all-sweep, on

Context:
On power-up the local oscillator IF and sweep stages are enabled, but the gunn stage is disabled. The gunn stage must be enabled before observing.
