gb038a is mostly at x-band with a few passes (22min each) at s-band. For the EVN stations I had to generate the appropriate sections for s-band in freqmod.dat. I did that by analogy to the x-band sections and by taking the LO frequencies etc. from the s/x sections. gb038a is for RCP and LCP. For stations with RCP capability only I had to fake the LCP channel. For stations with only half the number of BBCs, Noto for example, I had to manipulate the channel designation. Westerbork is down after 3 hours or so already according to SCHED. I am not sure whether that is really correct. That is why I left Westerbork in the schedule to the end of the nominal observations, just in case. Hope, this all works. Thanks very much for your help. - Norbert Bartel
