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
==================
Note: this experiment uses the 128 Mb/s Mk4 mode 128-16-1NB.

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) =   9.7
 Min =    .0   Max =   30.0 (Baseline Kb-Kk on 1806-458)   RMS =   5.5
