General point about receiver operations.

Tuning of the single pixel/dual polarization receivers is now considerably faster and more reproducible than before. Particular frequencies, like those in the range 72 - 80 GHz or those near a limit of the tuning range, may still be problematic. In these cases, we request to check with a Granada receiver engineers at least two weeks before the observations. HERA observers, however, are requested to send their frequencies as soon as their project gets scheduled.
