CRDS-16 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2005 January 17 (DOY 17) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crds16.skd Nominal Start: 12:00 U.T. on 2005 January 17 (DOY 17) first observation at 12:00 U.T. on 0107-610 Hh-Ho Duration: 24 hours Nominal Stop: 12:00 U.T. on 2005 January 18 (DOY 18) last observation at 11:55 U.T. on 2142-758 Hh-Ho Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of obs Occupation Code HARTRAO J 1.6 188 HOBART26 H 1.6 188 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 188 Total number of scans in the schedule: 188 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 128-16-1 (GEOSX2F). 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) = 12.5 Min = 10.2 Max = 19.3 (Baseline Hh-Ho on 1933-400) RMS = 2.4 Total time: 1441 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
