    A Priori

    Yebes

    • J. Gonzales: rate 1.17e-13 s/s, offsets in logs named n1k01?ys.log on vlbeer.
    • Did not observe K and L due to heavy rain and broken shutter.
    • Transferred the data of G, H, I, J, E.
    • VEX freq block sidebands UUUU UUUU LLLL LLLL rather than the default UL UL ... from SCHED
    • Epoch E: scan No0003 (142-0814) file empty or not recorded

    Effelsberg

    • U. Bach, etransferred epochs G & H. Pending transfer of the remaining epochs.
    • Offset +19.3 usec in G
    • Logs named ndk01g, ndk01h, and later n1k01i, n1k01j, n1k01k, n1k01l, n1k01e on vlbeer
    • H-maser rate same as in GMVA f211a, i.e., 2.05e-13 s/s.
    • VEX freq block sidebands UUUU LLLL rather than the default UL UL ... from SCHED.
    • Epoch G: wind and bad weather, first part ot track unusable, not on source until ~18:30 UT

    KVN Yonsei, Ulsan, Tamna

    • Waiting for e-transfer...
    • Table of clock offsets, sign for VEX same as in table
    • H-maser rate?
    • Tie of KVN to Ef+Ys : shift KVN VEX clocks by -2.83 us from kvn a priori values

    DiFX

    Special setup for correlation, because Effelsberg does not have simultaneous K and Q capability.

    • One v2d file for K-band, with "freqIds=..." to select only K-band recorded frequency IDs
    • Another v2d file for Q-band, with "freqIds=..." to select only Q-band recorded frequency IDs, and "deltaClock=.." to include any clock offsets over K-band reference clocks
    • Zoom bands of 64 MHz due to KVN 2ch x 512 MHz, versus Ef and Ys with 64 MHz wide channels in USB/LSB
    • Same zoom bands also added to Ef and Ys in order to produce all-USB visibility data; otherwise HOPS fourfit issues
