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 ================== N/A 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) = 31.2 Min = 15.2 Max = 49.5 (Baseline 13-Ft on 0834-201) RMS = 9.2 Total time: 1444 minutes ( 24.1 hours).
