Schedule ======== This is a new schedule generated by Alan Fey using sked. Correlation =========== This experiment will be correlated at the WACO Correlator. Data 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) = 6.9 Min = 1.4 Max = 23.9 (Baseline Hh-Ww on 0537-441) RMS = 4.1 Total time: 1446 minutes ( 24.1 hours).
