[asac] [Fwd: ATF status: first interferometric spectrum achieved]

[Al Wootten]

Folks,

Congratulations to the ALMA team working at the ATF; over the weekend it 
was announced that the first interferometric spectrum was obtained 
there.  A descriptive account circulated by Debra Shepherd may be 
obtained at:

Note that this spectrum was taken in 'bypass mode' in which the tunable 
filter boards are not used, and hence displays coarse resolution.

Clear skies,
Al
