Brief data summary
and
scan listing
)
18cm experiment observed on 9 Mar 2005. Data rate was 256 Mbps (4 X 8 MHz subbands, dual polarization, two-bit sampling). The target source '3C449' was calibrated using the phase-reference source 'J2241+4120'. 'NGC315', '3C31' and 'NGC5141' were self-calibrated. '3C345', '3C286' and 'OQ208' were also observed as calibrators/fringe finders.
8 stations participated. Torun had BBC #3 unlocked, which means RCP data in IF 2 were lost - these data have already been flagged. No fringes seen to Nt in IF 2 LCP (corresponds to BBC #4) - these data will need to be flagged. The Lovell telescope (Jb) uses a longer phase-reference cycle than the other stations; off-source scans will need to be flagged. Cm has good data only in IFs 1 and 2 due to the limited bandwidth of the MERLIN microwave link - Cm data in IFs 3 and 4 will need to be flagged. Wb observed with 13 antennas in phased-array mode (1 antenna was out).
The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was
ERI = 0.93 . ERI* = 0.93 .
(EF=1, WB=1, JB=1, ON=1, MC=1, TR=0.86, CM=1, NT=0.88)
