The band(s) used is(are) Q band(s). 02Aug09 11:00:25 The on-line baseline parameters for antenna(s) 27 have recently been updated (prior to your observing run) to correct for errors resulting from their recent relocations. In the analysis of your data would you please check for any significant baseline errors especially on these antennas and let the Data Analysts (email - analysts@nrao.edu) know what you find when there are significant baseline errors. Thank you in advance. 02Aug09 11:11:48 The telescope operator made an inspection of the VLB instrumentation.
