Westerbork (Tony Foley at Mon May 17 10:22:41 2004) Minor failures : LATE PCAL PHAS

Wb used in phased array mode. RTB out for maintenance Whole array was dead until 15minutes before time. One of the real-time processors in the array failed over the weekend so we had to swap units and edit procedures to use the new one. Polarization HAS NOT BEEN CALIBRATED. Phasecal is not working so we cannot check this way either We have new equalizers for the tied array so please check bandpasses. Late start of recording (10:06). I would like to request an FTP fringe test on Thursday
