The Atlantic Network of Geodynamic and Space Stations (RAEGE) This paper shows the current status of the Red Atlántica de Estaciones Geodinámicas y Espaciales (RAEGE), a joint Spanish-Portuguese infrastructure of geodetic stations. When complete, it will be composed of four VGOS (VLBI Global Observing System) radio-telescopes, two in Spain (Yebes and Gran Canaria) and two […]

Spectrum Management for the VGOS Spectrum management for the VLBI Global Observing System (VGOS) is an important task to keep radio frequency interference as absent as possible from observation sites. Protection can only be granted, if national and international authorities are made aware of the activities and operations at VLBI observing sites.To begin with spectrum

New Designs in VGOS Front-ends in Yebes Observatory The Yebes Observatory has designed and built five VGOS compliant receivers (2-14 GHz bandwidth) for their own radio telescopes and for other European IVS partners under contract or agreement since 2015. Although such receivers are successfully working in their respective sites, we consider that there is still

Consistency of VLBI estimates in the CONT17 campaign As part of its observing program, the International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astrometry (IVS) arranges special observation campaigns of continuous Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) known as CONT campaigns. The last CONT campaign (CONT17) was carried out by the end of 2017 and consisted of three
