Sub 1 =VLA, C band: Good data. ant20 went fringeless after ~1min
Sub 2 =EVLA, X band: 26 weak on IF D only, for the whole time i.e.
in sub 2 and when recombined into sub 1.
Sub 1, all, X band: 21 worked well in sub 2 (above), but stopped
fringing fringes when it rejoined sub 1.
Other than that, things appeared to be working well. Phases were
nice and continuous at the transition from sub 2 to sub 1 for EVLA
antennas (they stayed on 3C84), apart from weather.
Brigette is seeing many broken things in line mode subarrays, and
will report on that shortly.
