Onsala (Michael Lindqvist at Tue Mar 11 21:05:12 2008) Success :

Windy, some rain, otherwise no known problems.

Urumqi (Liu Feng at Tue Mar 11 21:07:15 2008) Minor failures :

Urumqi (Liu Feng at Tue Mar 11 21:10:25 2008) Success :

Torun (K. Borkowski at Wed Mar 12 07:03:37 2008) Success :

No known problems. From this experiment on another frequency synthesizer is used for HF local oscillators (to hopefully eliminate fringe phase jumps seen recently with the other synthesizer).

Hartebeesthoek (Jonathan Quick at Wed Mar 12 07:52:02 2008) Success :

No known problems

Westerbork (Tony Foley at Wed Mar 12 08:15:21 2008) Minor failures : ANT PHAS

Wb used in phased array mode. The power supply on the real-time control PC for the array was failing intermittently. Once we diagnosed it and found a replacement, we started up again at 17:54 UT (so we lost 15:00 - 17:54UT) When we restarted, one more telescope had lost its position.

Effelsberg (Uwe Bach at Wed Mar 12 09:31:10 2008) Success :

Source below horizon at start. Came up at 16:00 UT (Scan 25)

Noto (P. Cassaro at Thu Mar 13 12:47:53 2008) Success :

Jodrell_Bank (Alastair Gunn at Wed Mar 19 14:57:00 2008) Failure : WIND

The Lovell Telescope was used (Jb1). Telescope parked due to high winds for entire experiment.

Cambridge (Alastair Gunn at Wed Mar 19 14:57:41 2008) Minor failures : RECO

Problem initialising disk at bank swap at about 16:32 UT. Mk5 rebooted and on scan by about 16:40 UT. No other known problems.
