Antenna 18's C-band observations are showing phase jumps up and down
between two states that are separated by about 60 degrees.
Most of the time, these two states seem to be associated with the short
shallow drops seen in the amplitude solutions, i.e., when a short
shallow drop occurs in amplitude, the phases jump up or down by ~60
degrees, and return back to their original value following another short
shallow drop in amplitude, and so on. However, in some instances, the
phase jump occurs with no corresponding short shallow drop in amplitude.
Based on the test data I have from various days, these phase jumps are
seen in the C-band observations of Nov. 13, 16, 17, 19, and 26. However,
they are not seen in the C-band observations of Nov. 5.
