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 ================== N/A 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) = 19.3 Min = 10.3 Max = 39.8 (Baseline 45-Hh on 1933-400) RMS = 7.8 Total time: 1260 minutes ( 21.0 hours).
