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) = 14.5 Min = 0.0 Max = 31.8 (Baseline Ft-Hh on 2131-021) RMS = 6.4 Total time: 1444 minutes ( 24.1 hours).
