Trouble ??†

Tsys at A3 and A4 (P0L) are higher than that at A1 and A2 (P1L)
- Tsys at A3 and A4 (P0L) became higher with time ? (300 K => 500 K => 800 K ??)
  (not depend on Elevation and Weather..??)

- Start tuning -> start observation

Trouble
- High Tsys <= MAC level converter is strange??
- Strange pattern at P0-LSB like BAND8
