General Comments. ( Brief data summary and scan listing )
L-band e-EVN run on 23 January 2009. Aggregate bitrate was 512 Mbps with 2-bit sampling. There were in 8*8MHz subbands in both RCP and LCP. Fringe-finder was OQ208. The target source was phase-referenced to J1217+3007. Effelsberg could not participate because of a crack in the azimuth rail. Besides Cambridge, an additional MERLIN station, Knockin was made available for this run. In this pipeline the 2nd AIPS IFs of Cm and Kn were flagged but the data can be used. There were playback problems with Westerbork data (Mk5B->Mk5A+), the SU produced variable weights for the highest two subbands.

The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was ERI = 0.69 . ERI* = 0.93 . (Cm=1, Jb2=1, Kn=1, Mc=1, (Ef=0), On=1, Tr=1, Wb=0.75)
