[evlatests] 24mar07 status (quick look at AS909)

[Michael Rupen]

I had an hour of standard 50 MHz continuum observations (AS909: L C X bands) on 
Saturday 24mar07, at good elevations (50-60 degs.).  A very quick look showed:

X band
   ant. 13 14 16 17 18 23  OK
   ant. 24 IF C (aka IF 1L) amplitudes not very stable (bounce up and down
             from record to record [3.3s records])
   ant. 26 IF A (aka IF 1R) very noisy on first scan -- other IFs are fine
           IF D (aka IF 2L) very noisy throughout

C band
   ant. 13 14 16 18 24     OK
   ant. 23 26 no data (as expected)
   ant. 17 IF A (aka IF 1R) noisy on first scan of second half hour --
           other IFs are fine

L band
   ant. 13 16 18 23 24 OK
   ant. 14 IF C (aka IF 1L) low and noisy amplitudes; phases jump around
             from record to record [3.3s records]
   ant. 26 IF D (aka IF 2L) much lower sensitivity than any other antennas/IFs
