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.
