    • At 1 cm, SNR @ MPIfR is really lower somewhy. ASC had not introduced any a priori delay offset to the GBT (which we know to be  ~17 musec). Hence our 3 musec delay offset agrees with their 20 musec offset. 
    • The procedure in ASC for producing polynomials is the following:
      • Take a first order guess of the polynomial
      • correlate, find a fringe, add delay|rate offsets to a setup file (like we do with a vex or v2d file for DiFX)
      • recalculate polynomials with offsets taken into account
    • Hence, polynomial coefficients should be valid for the offsets that were used by the ASC correlator (For real observations, we will never have a recalculated poly. Need to perform the following test: take first order guess poly for rk12cj from ASC and try to correlate with it.    That was an initial poly wich we got from ASC.))
