Session E3019 Start 2003-232 18:00:00 AUG. 23 End 2003-233 17:55:10 AUG. 24 Stations 4 Ap ALGOPARK G Yk YLOW7296 X Ss CTVASTJ C Tc TIGOCONC O The E3 sessions are designed to measure EOPs in monthly sessions using the S2 VLBI system. They help to densify EOP measurements and to monitor systemic biases in observing programs. ************************************ Operators are reminded NOT to drudg S2 experiments at the station, but rather use the snap(*.snp), listing(*.sum) and proc (*.prc) files provided for each stations on CDDISA.gsfc.nasa.gov Note that this schedule uses the SLP recording speed, tapes are changed every 6 hours. ************************************ S2 Setups: ========== Make sure the DAS and RT are Synced and validated to UTC!
