Brief data summary

scan listing

RP024E, L-band ToO e-VLBI experiment, fifth epoch on 25 May 2016. Participating telescopes were Arecibo, Effelsberg, Jodrell Bank (LT), Medicina, Onsala (25m), Torun, Westerbork (single dish). Unlike EP100, Arecibo did take part in the VLBI phase-referencing of the ms-transient candidate.
The target FRB121102 was phase-referenced to the nearby source J0529+3209 (checked in RP024A). Fringe-finder 0234+285, and the ICRF calibrator used as phase-reference in RP024A, J0518+3306, were also observed for a short time. A phase-referencing scan was included between J0529+3209 (new p-ref) and J0530+3301 (p-ref check source). Two scans were added on a bright test pulsar in the beginning (J0528+2200 was phase-referenced to J0521+2112). Two other pulsars were observed at the end (J0614+2229 and J0629+2415 to be phase-referenced to J0604+2429 and J0637+2319, respectively; not done in this pipeline).
The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was
ERI = 1 . ERI* = 1 .

The phase-reference source J0529+3209 data show that Ar amplitudes vary strongly through the experiement, while SEFDs do not change that much. Pointing error?
