Single dish was used. Please change the coordinates in the vexfile accordingly. No known problems

Hartebeesthoek (Jonathan Quick at Mon Jun 12 07:25:38 2006) Success :
No known problems

Torun (Kaz Borkowski at Mon Jun 12 08:19:41 2006) Success :
No known problems (except some system complains after 6:30 about telescope lagging behind a source near our zenith blind spot).

Onsala (Michael Lindqvist at Mon Jun 12 09:44:41 2006) Minor failures :
Bad VC03 (see F06M2) was changed around 07:10 UTC. That replaced VC worked until around 18:40 UTC! After that we could not set frequency remotely anymore. Operator had to set the freq. and bw manually. Locked OK but I'm very uncertain about the result nevertheless.

Effelsberg (A. Polatidis at Mon Jun 12 11:32:09 2006) Minor failures :
Lost scans 0527-0531, 0740-0801, 2007-2015 due to telescope cable wrap limits

Noto (P. Cassaro at Sat Jun 17 12:05:25 2006) Success :
No known problems

Jodrell_Bank (Alastair Gunn at Tue Jun 20 09:17:36 2006) Minor failures : SCHED
The MkII telescope was used (Jb2). Scan 6 missing due to long slew. No other known problems.

Cambridge (Alastair Gunn at Tue Jun 20 09:18:42 2006) Minor failures : SCHED
The Darnhall telescope was used. Scan 6 missing due to long slew. No other known problems.

This note concerns the UHF experiments only. Shortly before the first experiment we could manage to install the Lange coupler to produce two circular polarizations instead of the linear polarization announced in the block schedule. Also, we failed to install the phase cal.

Jodrell_Bank (Alastair Gunn at Tue Jun 20 09:14:12 2006) Success : PCAL
The MkII telescope was used (Jb2). During this session the Mk2 phase cal. signal was found to be too high and could not be easily reduced in strength. I therefore switched off the phas cal. signal for the entire session (for Mk2 only).
