CRDS-49 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2008 September 16 (DOY 260) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crds49.skd Nominal Start: 17:30 U.T. on 2008 September 16 (DOY 260) first observation at 17:30 U.T. on 2333-415 Hh-Ho Duration: 24 hours Nominal Stop: 17:30 U.T. on 2008 September 17 (DOY 261) last observation at 17:29 U.T. on 1352-632 Hh-Ho Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of obs Occupation Code HARTRAO J 1.4 233 HOBART26 H 1.4 233 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 233 Total number of scans in the schedule: 233 Purpose ======= Astrometric observations to strenghten the ICRF in the Southern Hemisphere. Schedule ======== This is a new schedule generated by Alan Fey using sked. Correlation =========== This experiment will be correlated at the WACO Correlator. Tapes should be shipped to Washington, DC as soon after the experiment as practical. Special procedures ================== None Summary ======= The following listing is a summary of the observations in this schedule. Average number of obs. per baseline per source (normalized by up-time) = 17.6 Min = 12.2 Max = 28.1 (Baseline Hh-Ho on 1012-448) RMS = 4.0 Total time: 1443 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
