Session E3036 Start 2005-012 18:00:00 JAN. 12 End 2005-013 17:56:02 JAN. 13 Stations 6 Ap ALGOPARK G Ss CTVASTJ C Gc GILCREEK A Kk KOKEE K Sv SVETLOE S 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 Sv, Kk and Tc stations on CDDISA.gsfc.nasa.gov. CGLBI Stations will find the files on their field systems. Note that this schedule uses the SLP recording speed, tapes are changed every 6 hours. 4 Tapes sets are used at all stations. GILCREEK is a tag-a-long station for this session due to its first E3 run and recent difficulties with the maser. ************************************ S2 Setups: ========== Make sure the DAS and RT are Synced and validated to UTC!
