CRF-DS6 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2003 Aug 09 (DOY 221) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crfds6.skd Nominal Start: 04:20 U.T. on 2003 Aug 09 (DOY 221) first observation at 04:20 U.T. on 0355-669 Hh-Ti Duration: 24 hours Nominal Stop: 04:20 U.T. on 2003 Aug 10 (DOY 222) last observation at 04:18 U.T. on 0823-500 Hh-Ti Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of scans Occupation Code HARTRAO J 0.5 266 TIDBIN64 T 0.5 266 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 266 Total number of scans in the schedule: 266 Purpose ======= Astrometric observations to strenghten the ICRF in the Southern Hemisphere. There are 29 new sources; the remainder are ICRF Defining or Candidate sources. 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) = 11.1 Min = .0 Max = 20.5 (Baseline Hh-Ti on 1022-665) RMS = 5.0 Total time: 1440 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
