General Comments. ( Brief data summary and scan listing )
RSG04, C-band short e-VLBI run on 2012 Jan. 11. Participating telescopes were Jodrell Bank (MkII), Westerbork, Effelsberg, Onsala, Medicina, and Torun. Yebes could not take part because of a Mark5B problem. The targets J143813 and J173831 were phase-referenced to J1441+6318 and J1746+6226, respectively.

The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was ERI = 0.71 . ERI* = 0.71 . (Ef=0.75, Jb2=1, Mc=1, On=1, Tr=0.88, Wb=0.5)

plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase against time
Comments.
Wb: lost fringes halfway through - serious crash at Westerbork.

Plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase against frequency channel
Comments.
Ef: DBBC problems; used Mark5A on MkIV rack, but this limited the data rate to 768 Mbps.
Tr: IFs L5-6 missing (BBC#6 dead)

Comments.

TSYS against time
Comments.

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).
