CRF-S2 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2004 May 12 (DOY 133) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crfs2.skd Nominal Start: 18:00 U.T. on 2004 May 12 (DOY 133) first observation at 18:00 U.T. on 0037-593 Ho-Pa Nominal Stop: 18:00 U.T. on 2004 May 13 (DOY 134) last observation at 17:59 U.T. on 2254-367 Ho-Pa Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of scans Occupation Code HOBART26 H 0.9 199 PARKES P 3.4 199 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 199 Total number of scans in the schedule: 199 Purpose ======= Astrometric observations to strenghten the ICRF in the Southern Hemisphere. Re-observation of 25 new (not in the ICRF) sources; the remainder are ICRF (calibrator) 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) = 11.8 Min = 6.0 Max = 24.2 (Baseline Ho-Pa on 2254-367) RMS = 4.0 Total time: 1443 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
