There is something amiss with antennas 17 and 21.
I reviewed the logged Tsys values for these two antennas at L, C,
and X bands. The values for these antennas are far too high, in all
four IFs, at all three frequencies.
The table below shows the results:
Ant A B C D
17, L 71 61 64 58 Should be about 25 -- 30
17,C 122 94 70 66 Should be about 30 -- 40
17,X 104 110 95 105 Should be about 35
21,L 87 82 50 50
21,C 1000 1000 >1000 >1000 This one is giving erratic
visibility amplitudes -- due to random Tsys.
21,X 64 66 64 67
At C-band, we have special problems -- I worry that water has found
its way back into the feeds ...
26 has Tsys about 200K!
13 is about 55K
24 is about 55K
Only antenna 16 has a Tsys where I expect to see it
