Medicina (GMaccaferri at Wed Sep 10 16:04:57 METDST 1997) Success

New FS-9.3.15 used. maser resyncronized

Onsala (John Conway at Wed Sep 10 18:07:04 METDST 1997) Minor failures

Due to FS upgrade, had problems with FS to antenna computer control at begining of expt, had to enter source coordinates manually from antenna computer. One scan missed due to having to recompile software. Problem wih phase-cal, expect no phase-cal on tapes. In second half computer control restored, expect only one scan lost.

Cambridge (Alastair Gunn at Thu Sep 11 10:09:32 METDST 1997) Minor failures

FS 9.3.15 upgrade prior to start. Tsys logging is not possible on the Cm link. Error in MERLIN/VLBI switch led to dual pol. recorded until 13:19 UT. At single pol. BBCs 4,6,8 do not have signal due to restrictions on Cm link. BBC03 USB effected by RFI from the 163 MHz LO.
