CRF-DS7 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2003 Aug 20 (DOY 232) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crfds7.skd Nominal Start: 22:05 U.T. on 2003 Aug 20 (DOY 232) first observation at 22:05 U.T. on 0048-427 Hh-Ti Duration: 24 hours Nominal Stop: 22:05 U.T. on 2003 Aug 21 (DOY 233) last observation at 22:07 U.T. on 0334-546 Hh-Ti Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of scans Occupation Code HARTRAO J 0.6 283 TIDBIN64 T 0.6 283 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 283 Total number of scans in the schedule: 283 Purpose ======= Astrometric observations to strenghten the ICRF in the Southern Hemisphere. There are 32 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) = 12.0 Min = 4.1 Max = 18.4 (Baseline Hh-Ti on 1022-665) RMS = 3.3 Total time: 1444 minutes ( 24.1 hours).
