Abstract
In 2006–2010, several radio frequency (RF) detectors and calibration equipment were deployed as part of the IceCube array at depths between 5 and 1400 m in preparation for a future large scale GZK neutrino detector. IceCube's deep holes and well-established data handling system provide a unique opportunity for deep-ice RF detection studies at the South Pole.We will present verification and calibration results as well as a status-review of ongoing analyses such as ice-properties, RF noise and reconstruction algorithms.
