Special notes for this session:
  - The VLBA stations will use automatic tape allocation and automatic
    tape reversal. 
  - Most VLBA stations record two initial fringe finding scans along 
    with geodetic stations Fairbanks and Westford. These stations also 
    record two final long (5-min) scans. 
  - GGAO (MV3) will participate in this session in order to maintain
    the VLBI position determination for this fundamental station.
    This station is tagged along so that its small size does not
    make the scan lengths too long.
  - Onsala will not participate in this session.
  - The Green Bank geodetic station has been shut down and will not
    participate in any future sessions.
  - Wettzell and Kokee will leave the schedule on day 339 to observe 
    intensive schedule i00339 which starts at 18:30. They will rejoin 
    the RDV schedule at about 20:00 at pass 7F. 

Purpose
=======
This is the last of six bi-monthly coordinated astrometric/geodetic 
experiments in 2000 that use the full 10-station VLBA plus up to 10
geodetic stations capable of recording VLBA modes. This year's series 
is a continuation of the highly successful RDV series begun in 1997.

These experiments are being coordinated by the geodetic VLBI programs 
of three agencies: USNO, NASA, and NRAO. The experiments have been
designed so that the same data set may be used by each agency for
its particular goals. 

USNO will perform repeated imaging and correction for source structure. 
These sources will establish a set of core reference sources with known 
structure and precisely known positions. These data will provide the 
basis for evaluating the long term stability of the radio reference 
frame and the ultimate accuracy of wide angle astrometric measurements 
of extragalactic radio sources using VLBI. 

NASA will analyze this data to determine a high accuracy terrestrial 
reference frame. The data will incorporate the VLBA stations into 
the VLBI reference frame through the inclusion of other geodetic 
stations for which we have long histories. The data will also produce 
the most accurate Earth rotation results ever produced. We will use 
these data to make accurate absolute measurements of UT1.

NRAO will use these sessions to provide a service to users who
require high quality positions for small numbers of sources. While
the quality of these results will be high, the observing and data
reduction overhead required will be minimal because such sources
can be incorporated into a session of the regular geodetic
observations, instead of requiring special observations.

Sources for this series of experiments will be selected using the
proposed approach. For each experiment we will select a set of 70-80
sources out of the pool of ~400 Northern Hemisphere ICRF sources.
About 40-50 of these will remain the same from experiment to experiment
and will be chosen to optimize the goals of the three groups.


Schedule
========
This is a new schedule generated by Nancy Vandenberg using sked.

 "Requested" Sources in rdv24 : 

Leonid Petrov requested that 0839+187 and nearby sources be observed 
so that reference positions are available for observations when 
Jupiter passes close to the quasar. The target source and first two 
reference sources were observed in RDV23. The other two reference
sources are observed in this session.

1) J0839+1802   08h39m30.7209   18d02'47.141   0.17 Jy  distance:   49 arcmin!
2) J0854+2006   08h54m48.8749   20d06'30.642   0.13 Jy  distance: 3d21'
3) J0856+2111   08h56m57.2445   21d11'43.644   0.18 Jy  distance: 4d21'
4) J0825+1332   08h25m11.8915   13d32'32.541   0.21 Jy  distance: 5d03'


I would like to ask for an accurate position measures for the sources listed
below. These sources will be used for phase referencing in my recently proposed
VLBA observations because of the low flux densities of the target sources.


Emmanuel Momjian requested accurate positions for the following sources
for a phase referencing experiment with the VLBA.

 With this session we continue rotating through the large list of
candidate ICRF sources. The method was as follows:
- Remove sources from the core list of 80 sources used last year.
- Add up to 20 sources from the list of candidates that already have
  some NEOS or VLBA data available (rotating sources).
- Add 2 sources from the list of sources to be observed yearly.
- Add 2 sources from the list of candidates that have never been
  observed with the VLBA (new sources).

The same criteria were used for generating this schedule as were 
used during the first year of these sessions. The criteria for 
sources to be mapped are a minimum of 3 scans and 135 observations. 
These criteria are relaxed for sources below -25 degrees declination. 
Most of the sources in this schedule meet the mapping criteria.

The schedule was made using a combination of automatic selection
plus manual scheduling to improve the coverage of the sources.
Automatically scheduled scans were selected first on their improvement 
of sky coverage in the previous 1 hour, and then the best 60% were 
evaluated for the minor options: minimize idle time, minimize slewing 
time, and maximize the number of observations. An individual source 
was not observed more often than every 90 minutes. An early start 
of 30 seconds was used for the first scan on a tape pass. The minimum
scan length was 40 seconds.

NEW: RDV21 was the first schedule made with a new version of sked that 
takes advantage of the automatic tape allocation at the VLBA stations.
For these stations sked assumes that any scan will fit on the tape
pass and there is no need to run the tape to the end of a pass if
the scan is too long to fit in the remaining tape.

Recording Mode and Frequencies: same as previous experiment 
===========================================================
The data will be recorded using the following setup:
        8 channels
        1:4 fan-out 
        16 MHz sample rate
        1-bit sampling
This recording mode is designated 128-8-1. The correlator speed-up 
factor is 2.

The frequency sequence covers 490 MHz in 8 channels. This span fits in 
one VLBA receiver passband but it uses both the high and low parts of the 
geodetic receivers. Because only 8 channels are available when observing 
with the VLBA stations, a wider spanned bandwidth is not advisable. With 
the 1:4 fanout at 16 MHz sample rate, all 32 tracks are recorded in one 
pass, so there will be 14 passes on a tape.

These tables list the setup for the VLBA stations, the geodetic stations
with VLBA back ends, and the geodetic stations with Mark IV back ends.
These are the SAME frequencies used in all the standard RDV sessions.

Geodetic stations: please read the special procedures in the next section!

Procedures
==========
With continuous tape motion, the tape starts moving and recording
at the beginning of the first scan of a pass. The tape runs and records
continuously thereafter to the end of the tape (EOT or BOT). A parity 
check is done after the tape reaches this point. The tape starts moving 
in the opposite direction at the early start time (30 seconds) before 
the next scan. There will be a variable length of time between tape 
passes. For the VLBA stations, there will normally be a long enough 
time gap between passes for playback.

Special procedures for non-VLBA stations
========================================
The tape motion in this experiment is different from normal 
start&stop schedules. At the time the antenna gets on source, you 
should see the command "data_valid=on" from the SNAP schedule. This 
is the signal that the VLBA correlator will use to determine when 
to start correlating this scan. 

At the time the antenna begins slewing to the next source, you will
see the command "data_valid=off" from the schedule. This is the signal
the correlator will use to stop correlating that scan. There will
be no "et" command at the end of a scan.

The DRUDG listing has a column that lists the time that the tape 
will stop. Note the "Start Tape" and "Stop Tape" columns list 
times only when the tape will start or stop, otherwise the time is 
blanked out because the tape is moving. For each scan, the "Start 
Data" column will be the time when the antenna is expected to be 
on source. The "Stop Data" column is the time when the antenna 
starts slewing to the next source.

After the setup procedure, the tape is started at the beginning of 
each pass and will continue to move, at record speed, until it reaches 
the end of the pass. There are no fast tape motions in this schedule. 
The tape is continuously recording from the initial "st" command at 
the start of the pass. There are no other "st" commands during a 
pass and there are no other setup procedures called. 

If you have to re-start the schedule for a problem or emergency, you
will be able to do it either 1) at the beginning of a pass or 2)
in the middle of a pass by entering the setup and start tape commands 
manually. The problem is that the heads cannot be positioned reliably 
when the tape is moving if there is recorded data on the tape. If the 
tape is moving the reproduce power level can cause cross-talk with 
the head positioner and give false indications of position. Another
problem is that the data disappears on tape while the formatter
resets itself, thus largely eiliminating the benefits of continuous
motion.

At the end of each pass a parity check is done. You will need 
procedures named "checkf80" and "checkr80". Check and adjust the timing 
of this procedure and then make sure it can complete in the 100 seconds 
that the schedule allows. 

Special procedures for Medicina, Westford, GGAO
Ny Alesund, Wettzell, HartRAO, Tsukuba, Matera
==================================================================
These stations have Mark IV formatters. 

Use the procedures generated by DRUDG. These should be the same
as the ones used in previous RDV sessions, starting with RDV13. 

This is a non-standard setup. There are 8 video converters used: 
3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, and 14. These were selected so that you 
will NOT have to change the standard geodetic IF patching. The 6 
unused VCs 1, 2, 7, 8, 11, and 12 should be set to frequencies which 
do not occur in any of the passbands. Any value in the 100-200 MHz 
range is OK. 

The Mark IV formatters currently have no barrel roll capability, so
please verify that your FORM command has no specification for barrel
roll.

The IF3 command in the procedure IFDSX assumes that VC3 will be
patched to High. Please verify that the switches for your IF3
module are wired this way, and if they are not please edit the
IF3 command to change the switches. If you have questions about
the wiring, please contact Brian Corey at Haystack.

Special procedures for Fairbanks, Kokee

These stations have VLBA back ends.

Use the procedures generated by DRUDG. BBCs 3,4,5,6 are used at 
X-band with IFs A and C. BBCs 9,10,13,14 are used at S-band with IF B.

The unused BBCs 1,2,7,8,11,12 should be set to frequencies 
which do not occur in any of the passbands. Any value in the range
500-600 MHz is OK. 

The formatter should be set up to use barrel roll. Please verify that
you are using the same barrel roll as you used in previous sessions 
correlated at the VLBA. 

CHECKLIST for non-VLBA stations
===============================
Please follow the checklist below to ensure you have done all the
necessary steps for this experiment:

1. Make .prc file with DRUDG and check them out, or use the procedures
   from last session. Check out parity check procedures.
2. Make .snp file and listings using DRUDG options 3 and 5. 
3. Set up your system to monitor the clocks with the "gps-fmout" or
   "fmout-gps" commands. If you have questions about this, please 
   contact Ed Himwich as soon as possible.
4. Send a "ready" message an hour or so before the experiment to the
   ivs-ops mail list. Copy analysts@nrao.edu on your ready message.
5. Send a "start" message soon after you have started recording.
   Copy analysts@nrao.edu on the message.
6. At the end of the experiment, send a "finish" message summarizing
   how the experiment was conducted. Copy analysts@nrao.edu on
   your message.
8. Transfer your log files to your normal log file data center. 
   The directories for three possible servers are listed below:
      directory on cddisa:   dec00 
      directory on vlbeer:   dec00
      directory on aspen:    /home/aspen6/astronomy/dec00/rdv24
   NOTE: If you don't normally use aspen, you should not put
   your log file on that server. The VLBA correlator knows where
   to find your log files.

Correlation
===========
This experiment will be correlated at the VLBA Correlator. Tapes should
be shipped to Socorro as soon after the experiment as practical.
