Could be a problem with VC03?

Westerbork (Tony Foley at Mon Jun 12 06:47:44 2006) Success :

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

Hartebeesthoek (Jonathan Quick at Mon Jun 12 07:10:46 2006) Success :

No known problems

Torun (K.Borkowski at Mon Jun 12 07:59:49 2006) Minor failures :

Essentially no problems, however 4 scans (about 10 min) after 20:54 recorded off source because this much time is required to switch an RF filter, as implied by the schedule. Such operation is done here in the upper telescope cabin manually and only by an entitled person.

Torun (Kaz at Mon Jun 12 08:11:17 2006) Minor failures :

Oops! In the first message I forgot to mention a failure of the receivers power supply which caused about half an hour loss of observations (since 21:44). The last four scans should be good.

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).
