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) = 15.1 Min = 0.0 Max = 36.6 (Baseline Ho-Kb on 0524-460) RMS = 6.6 Total time: 1442 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
