Thank you, Andrew and Jason, for that advice. I'll check with Joseph
Trinh when I get to JPL. He built the model.
Perhaps that will also deal with the problem I discovered next. I
changed the clock frequency to 900 MHz (in both cam.py and the Agilent
synthesizer) and powered cycled the ROACH. The roach passed rfi_init.py
just like at 800 MHz (except for the new system clock frequency).
However, rfi_spectrum.py died with a very unhelpful message. Something
like "problem detected". I'll try to find where that happens before we
go to the new bof file.
