An optical fiber IF transmission and tracking delay system and a wideband continuum correlator have been developed for the Owens Valley (OVRO) Millimeter Array. The IF system processes two 1-2 GHz bands which are frequency multiplexed through an optical fiber link. This allows simultaneous dual wavelength observations in the 2.7 and 1.3-mm bands or dual polarization observations in either band.
