SCHED provides warnings at individual scans for distances less than 10 degrees. The distance from the Sun to each source in this schedule is: Source Sun distance (deg) J1808-1926 65.6 J1809-1952 65.9 J1811-1908 65.4 J1809-1920 65.7 J1809-1923 65.8 J1808-1822 65.8 1741-038 73.2 Barry Clark estimates from predictions by Ketan Desai of IPM scattering sizes that the Sun will cause amplitude reductions on the longest VLBA baselines at a solar distance of 60deg F^(-0.6) where F is in GHz.
