Summary for Onsala for Session 2014-3

Experiment End date Friend Result Problem Text
EA055A2014-10-31Jun YangSuccessNoneThe LO and BBC frequency setup was not correct until 19:45 UT. Because of the fixed bandwidth (250 - 500 MHz) of L-band filter, the LO frequency 1220 MHz in the vex file should be shifted down to 1000 MHz.
EA056A2014-10-26Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems.
EA056B2014-11-02Jun YangMinor failuresNoneThe first 15 minutes were lost because of late starting of observations. This was due to a problem with switching on the antenna power.
EG084A2014-10-23Jun YangFailureNoneThe wind was quite strong. Only got a chance to run the observation for about 40 minutes (13:29 -- 14:09 UT).
EG084B2014-10-27Jun YangSuccessNoneCloudy night. No known problems during the observations.
EG084B2014-10-27Jun YangSuccessNoneCloudy night. No known problems during the observations.
EP088G2014-10-21Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems.
EP088H2014-10-28Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems
ER030E2014-10-22Jun YangSuccessNoneNone
ER030F2014-10-30Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems.
ER030G2014-11-04Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems.
ES072L2014-10-16Jun YangSuccessNoneNo rain, while quite cloudy. Our 25m telescope is getting old. It could not track sources stably at 6.7 GHz, the highest working frequency, in particular if the wind direction is face on. There are some messages of "antenna, off-source" and "antenna, re-acquired" during the scans in the log file.
ES072M2014-10-17Jun YangSuccessNoneIt was a cloudy day with a few short and light rain.
F14C32014-10-20Jun YangFailureNoneNo observations due to high winds.
F14L32014-10-27Jun YangSuccessNoneNone
F14L32014-10-27Jun YangSuccessNoneSuccessfully done with good ftp fringes
F14M32014-10-16Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems. The FTP-fringe tests were successfully done.
F14X12014-11-03Jun YangSuccessNoneClearly fringes to both MK5B+ data and Flexbuff data were found during all the FTP-fringe tests.
GA035A2014-10-28Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems. The disk pack was sent to JIVE.
GB075B2014-10-20Jun YangSuccessNoneIt was cloudy and quite humid. Once rain started, Tsys increased significantly. The weather was certainly not good for the 43 GHz observations. No other known problems.
GJ0142014-10-22Jun YangMinor failuresNoneThe first 10 minutes were out due to a change of antenna gearbox. Proper Tsys data were not available until the noise source were reset to normal MK4 calibration mode. At 9:15 UT, there was an error: ERROR sc -24 setcl: Mark 5B syncerr_gt_3. CONSIDER using fmset 's' option to fix. I tried to run fmset for a few times, while, MK5B was busy and refused to sync time during the gap (no recording).
GJ0142014-10-22Jun YangMinor failuresNoneSwitching on and off noise source had a long time delay (~20 seconds) in the first hour and so there were no Tsys measurements. After that, the bug was found and fixed by our software engineer. There was an error: 2014.294.09:15:50.22?ERROR sc -24 setcl: Mark 5B syncerr_gt_3, CONSIDER uisng fmset 's' option to fix. According to its suggestions, we tried to run fmset to fix it during the gap for a few times, while MK5B reported too busy to service request.
GP053B2014-10-20Jun YangFailureNoneObservations were only performed during 13:41 - 14:21 UT. Because of strong winds, the telescope had to be stowed in the other time.
GP053C2014-10-27Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems.
GP053D2014-11-03Jun YangSuccessNoneNo known problems.
N14C32014-10-22Jun YangSuccessNoneThere were good fringes during the ftp-fringe tests.
N14L32014-10-30Jun YangSuccessNoneGood fringes were found during the ftp fringe tests
N14M32014-10-17Jun YangSuccessNoneFringes were found in all the FTP-fringe tests.
N14Q22014-10-19Jun YangSuccessNoneMaser lines were seen in the extended ftp fringe test (N14QX). No clearly fringes were found during the FTP fringe tests of N14Q2. The weather was cloudy, certainly contributing high noise to the observing system. We checked PCal. It was clearly seen in our local monitor. LO frequency was properly set. Pointing was verified before the observations. No clock jumps were reported during observations.
N14X12014-11-04Jun YangSuccessNoneGood fringes were seen during all the ftp fringe tests.
EL050A2014-11-05NoneNoneNoneNone
