  • ASSERT
    Argos Spectrometer Search for Extragalactic Radio Transients

  • PHOENIX_3
    FFT-spectrometer covering the frequency range in 4 bands from 1GHz to 5GHz in 2 polarizations (LHCP and RHCP), 131'072  channels every 200msec.

  • CALLISTO:
    Frequency agile spectrometer 45 MHz to 870 MHz in view of IHY2007
    Compound Astronomical Low-cost Low-frequency Instrument for Spectroscopy and Transportable Observatory

  • ARGOS:
    Heterodyne fft radio spectrometer.

  • PHOENIX-2:
    A fully computer-controlled instrument, in operation since 1998, covering the frequency range 0.1 to 4 GHz.

  • PHOENIX:
    A fully computer-controlled instrument, in operation since 1988, covering the frequency range 0.1 to 3 GHz with 2000 measurements per second.

  • IKARUS:
    The predecessor of PHOENIX, in operation between 1978 and 1985, that covered the frequency band 0.11 to 1 GHz in steps of 1 MHz, with a rate of 2000 measurements per second.

  • DAEDALUS:
    This broadband analog solar radiospectrograph covers the frequency range 100-1000 MHz in one continuous, linear sweep. It was in operation between 1972 and 1993. The successor of IKARUS.
