SUMMARY FILE FOR PROJECT: RSW02 COVER INFORMATION: Experiment: A Re-observation of the VLBA Primary Calibrator J1926+4441 Exp. Code: RSW02 Start Day 62 is Thu 3 Mar 2022 MJD 59641 Schedule Version: 1.00 Processed by SCHED version: 11.60 Release 11.6; April 2020 PI: Wandia Address: University of Manchester Oxford Street Manchester UK Phone: +44(0) 7459438349 EMAIL: kelvinwandia.kw@gmail.com Fax: Phone during observation: Observing mode: Notes: No cover letter provided. CORRELATION REQUESTS (Defaults in parentheses): Correlator (Required if recording): JIVE Correlator average time (2 sec): 2.000 sec. Alternate average time (for spacecraft). 0.000 sec. Output spectral channels per baseband (16): 64 Correlator FFT size (128): 128 Number of antennas to be correlated: 13 Polarization (ON): OFF Correlator weighting function (UNIFORM): UNIFORM Distribution tape (DAT): NONE Distribution format (FITS): FITS Source positions from: FROM SCHEDULE Shipping address for correlator output: Joint Institute for VLBI ERIC Oude Hoogeveensedijk 4 7991 PD Dwingeloo The Netherlands Correlator Notes: Please correlate all scans with high time (0.25s) and frequency resolution (16k channels) Please do not discard the raw voltages after correlation DERIVED INFORMATION FOR CORRELATION: All scans Elapsed time for project (hours): 0.82 Total time in scheduled scans (hours): 0.65 Total time in recording scans (hours): 0.65 Total baseline hours (recording scans): 68.25 Projected max correlator output rate (kB/s): 107.5 Projected correlator output data size (MB): 251.6 NOTES: Above numbers assume the same correlator parameters are used for all data. The 'baseline hours' include the autocorrelations (for data size calculations). The correlator output data rate is for real-time processing. Above numbers assume the same correlator parameters are used for all data. The recordings for a scan are assumed to start at the scan START minus PRESTART. Some stations (VLA, VLBA/MARK5C) wait for good data so the estimates may be high.

JODRELL2 VEX 6 0.65 0.65 4 38. Notes on the station scan summaries: "Record Scans" are periods of recording with no gap. The Mark5A disk systems have a limit of 1024 such scans. There are often multiple projects on a disk pack. If using MARK5A, try to keep above about 6 GB per record scan by using MINPAUSE and PRESTART to prevent short gaps. However, also try to prevent record scans of more than an hour to minimize risk to data from playback problems. MARK5C will have one observe scan per record scan and there is no limit to the number.
