1. Introduction

Zpectrometer observations require changes in the Ka Receiver which amount to removal of components from the physical receiver, changing the number of IF paths from the receiver and thus requiring changes in how the signal paths from the receiver are configured.

2. Background

3. Requirements

What are the implementation-independent requirements for this MR?

4. Design

What is your plan? How are you going to fulfill the requirements?

5. Add Any More Sections That Are Appropriate

6. Deployment Checklist

What has to get done to integrate this completely into the system. This checklist must be completed before Cycle Integration Testing begins.

• Communication with Computing group needed?
• What documentation needs to be updated?
• Training Needed? Is this being released to staff astronomers or everyone right now?
• Notification Needed?

7. Test Plan

Critical!! ChangeControlCommittee will be reviewing these. Please send a link to this MR to RonMaddalena along with a suggestion for two reviewers when it is ready for CCC review.

Don't forget to include/acquire any additional GBT test time needed outside integration/regression testing! Get your requests in early!

Important! If possible, you should conduct as many of your tests as possible in offline modes and/or with a simulator. We should constantly endeavor to minimize our use of telescope time for testing!

7.1 Internal Testing

This section covers things like unit testing, simulator testing, and any other tests required to make sure this MR is ready for sponsor/integration/regression testing.

7.2 Sponsor Testing

This section is for the sponsor. What do you need to do in order to ensure that the MR is complete and correct? These tests are the prerequisite for sign off for the "accepted/delivered by sponsor" item in the "signatures" section.

7.3 Integration/Regression Tests

What do the integration/regression testers need to do in order to test this MR.
