CRF-69 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2012 June 6 (DOY 158) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crf69.skd Nominal Start: 18:00 U.T. on 2012 June 6 (DOY 158) first observation at 18:00 U.T. on 2355-106 13-Kk-Ts Duration: 24 hours Nominal Stop: 18:00 U.T. on 2012 June 7 (DOY 159) last observation at 17:59 U.T. on 0048-097 13-Kk-Ts Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of scans Occupation Code DSS13 175 KOKEE 530 TSUKUB32 530 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 880 Total number of scans in the schedule: 530 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 ================== 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) = 32.4 Min = 0.0 Max = 78.8 (Baseline 13-Ts on 0414-189) RMS = 22.8 Total time: 1441 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
