    General comments:

    Whole session:

    • Ys has (as usual) observed  LCP only
    • Pt has fringes only in parts of the experiment and only to a few stations

    ALMA-mode:

    • MH no fringes. Strange AC indicating error in setup of firmware. MH has a rare DBBC setup.
    • Pv: used 32 MHz PFB by mistake. Not included in first run with 58 MHz sub-bands.
    • Ys fringes in MB007. Seems to have used 32 MHz PFB in other 2 observations.
    • ALMA: first time with GMVA and good fringes
    • A 2nd correlation pass was done to recover Pv and Ys: requires experimental zoom-mode and stitching of sub-bands to 58 MHz. More info under mg002.
    • 3 correlations done:
      • 58 MHz sub-bands (defined by ALMA sub-bands). No Pv and Ys data included
      • 32 MHz sub-bands to match Pv and Ys setup, correlated with all stations
      • different "zoom-bands" which cut good pieces of ALMA mode and 32 MHz mode. Has to be stitched together by new task written by J. Wagner to form again 58 MHz sub-bands. This is tranparent to the users. Correlated with all stations.

    p459kri says:
    For the ALMA mode experiments some stations recorded data in the wrong mode, using PFB instead of the full band mode. Could be related to a bug in the FS, which did not recognize the command dbbc=dbbcform=full_auto.
    Correlator team will try to glue the PFB bands together so that at least part of the data can be recovered.
    Appart form the above of MH also did have a firmware problem. Therefore the Alma mode data from this station are likely to be unusable. edited 14:44, 20 Jul 2017
