Jodrell Bank Observatory is responsible for the Front end modules (FEMs) for 30 GHz for LFI, with IAC being responsible for the hybrids and any phase switch. The University of Cantabria are responsible for the Back end modules (BEMs). Developments have been made to test prototypes both warm and cold for the FEMs. This is evolving towards flight hardware through an elegant breadboard phase EBB. Results of system performance show both white noise and 1/f characteristics.
