CRF-73 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2012 January 08 (DOY 008) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crf73.skd Nominal Start: 17:30 U.T. on 2012 January 08 (DOY 008) first observation at 17:30 U.T. on 2357-318 Ft-Hh-Nt Duration: 24 hours Nominal Stop: 17:30 U.T. on 2012 January 09 (DOY 009) last observation at 17:25 U.T. on 0221+067 Ft-Hh-Nt Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of scans Occupation Code FORTLEZA F 185 HARTRAO J 185 NOTO 185 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 555 Total number of scans in the schedule: 185 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) = 14.6 Min = 0.0 Max = 30.9 (Baseline Ft-Nt on 2106-413) RMS = 5.8 Total time: 1441 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
