General Comments. ( Brief data summary and scan listing )
ED040B, C-band e-VLBI experiment on 2016 November 1 Participating telescopes were Effelsberg, Jodrell Bank, Onsala, Noto, Medicina, Torun, Westerbork, Yebes, Tianma, Svetloe, Zelenchukskaya, Irbene, Urumqi, Hart, and Badari. Urumqi could not observe due to technical issues.

The target PM46 was phase-referenced to 0849+287. The target PM39 was phase-referenced to 1015+359. The target PM64 was phase-referenced to 1100+122. The target PM01 was phase-referenced to 0917+624. The target PM36 was phase-referenced to 1645+410. The target PM04 was phase-referenced to 1151+598. The target PM83 was phase-referenced to 2217-011.

The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was ERI = . ERI* = . (Ur=0, Sv=0, rest EVN stations=1)


Plots of the autocorrelations
Comments.
Each scan plotted separately, all stations.


Plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase against time
Comments.
Full-experiment for Ef-* baselines, no calibration applied. A 1.5 minute plot-averaging was used.


Plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase against frequency channel
Comments.
Scalar averaged Ef-* baselines, each scan plotted separately. No calibration applied yet.


The uncalibrated amplitude and phase of the crosshand correlations against frequency channel (not available)
Comments.


TSYS against time
Comments.
TY1 table, each IF/pol on a separate plot.


Telescope sensitivities from the a priori TSYS and Gain curves (the square of this number gives the antenna noise (SEFD) in Jy - the smaller the better).
Comments.
Gain amplitude from CL2 table.


Fringe-fit phase solutions (including Parallactic Angle correction).
Comments.
CL3 station phase solutions -- CL3 = CL2+SN2, thus also includes the initial amplitude/parallactic angle calibration from CL2 and the fringe solutions from SN2.


Fringe-fit delay solutions
Comments.
SN2 station delay solutions for the fringed sources, each IF/pol on a separate plot.


Fringe-fit rate solutions
Comments.
SN2 station rate solutions.


Telescope bandpasses
Comments.
Bandpass table 1. 4C39.25 and OQ208 were used for bandpass calibration.


Calibrated amplitude and phase against time (a priori amplitude calibration and fringe-fit solutions applied).
Comments.
Full-experiment for Ef-* baselines, calibrated with CL3. The 1.5-min plot-averaging still applied.


Calibrated amplitude and phase against frequency channel
Comments.
Ef-* baselines calibrated with CL3 and BP1. The amp and phase plots self-scale, not necessarily going down to 0 in the case of the amps.
