It's worse if you want cross polarisation products as well - only
0.1km/s channel spacing at 3mm. that's barely the thermal linewidth...<br>

There have been some difficulties establishing the 31.25 MHz correlator
mode, which provides highest resolution. As you know, 62.5 MHz works
fine at the moment. At 86 GHz, this provides 15.2587891 kHz/0.053 km/s
resolution (attached example of mode 12/Ori SiO maser--the cause of the
incorrect frequency problem is well-known; the casa plot labeling
awkwardness may be known). I think that the priority of getting the
higher res mode going is not so high as getting other aspects working,
e.g. multi-resolution multi-window modes and that effort on it might be
postponed. Mode 6 offers twice the resolution (at the cost of one
polzn) but is not on the no 1 priority list from the ASAC.

"C. Mode 12. Two polarizations in a bandwidth of 62.5 MHz and 4096
channels, the highest spectral resolution available (0.02 km/s at 230
GHz over a bandwidth of 82 km/s). This will satisfy even the most
detailed requirements for high spectral resolution."

<br>
What do you all think?

Clear skies,
