Comments (During Observations) : ******************************************************************* Important Note for Observer: The refurbishment work of the W02 antenna reflector surface is currently in progress. The refurbishment of the inner sectors will commence from 16th May 2023 onwards. Please note that this ongoing work may affect the sensitivity of the antenna and could also alter the primary beam pattern depending on the size of the holes present on the surface. We advise exercising caution in using the antenna, particularly if your targets are extended or if you are using a wide field. ******************************************************************* ------------GWB Setting--------- GPU_MODE : Realtime GPU_LTA : 8 GPU_ACQ_BW : 200.0000 GPU_FINAL_BW : 200 GPU_EDGE_FRQ : 0 GPU_CHAN_MAX : 4096 GPU_CHAN_NUM : 0:4095:1 GPU_STOKES : Total_Intensity GPU_SIDEBAND : 1 1 GPU_RF4 : 550 550 GPU_DDCLO4 : 0.0000 0.0000 GPU_SB4 : 1 1 GCODE4 : 44_067 GPU_CNTRL : ONLINE/TGC GPU_FSTOP : ON GPU_BEAM_1 : OFF GPU_BEAM_2 : VOLTAGE GPU_BEAM_3 : PA GPU_BEAM_4 : OFF GPU_BM_INT : 4 GPU_GAINEQ : ON GPU_TPA : From online/TGC tpa GPU_BITS : 8 Bits GPU_FILRFI : RFI Filterring OFF GPU_BEAM_S : OFF GPU_PFB : OFF GPU_PFB_TAPS : 4 GPU_BEAM_BIT : 16 GPU_VLT_BIT : 8 GPU_WALSH : OFF GPU_ENV : RELEASED -------------------------------- # GWB GAC configuration is as follows : # BEAM-1:130 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 # BEAM-1:175 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 # BEAM-2:130 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 # BEAM-2:175 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 # BEAM-3:130 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 # BEAM-3:175 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 # BEAM-4:130 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 # BEAM-4:175 :: C00 C02 C03 C05 C06 C08 C09 C10 C11 C12 C13 E02 E03 S01 S02 S03 S04 W01 W03 W04 Total=20 ---------------------------------- 19:00:19 : Started set-up. 19:20:11 : Started scan on 1154-350 for ~ 2.5054 min. 19:25:34 : Started cmd file. /data1/gtac/cmd/44_067/44_067_4jun.py 20:25:19 : Stopped cmd file and observing session over. ----------------------------------
