[evlatests] L-Band RFI -- again

[Rick Perley]

    A continuum L-band observation was taken near noon.  The first 
observation, at 11:53 through 11:58 MST, was completely wiped out -- all 
the hallmarks of RFI.   By far the worst offenders are clustered at the 
center of the array -- antennas 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 20 and 24.  The second 
observation was taken at 12:37 through 12:42 -- these data are just 
fine.   A check done a few minutes ago (2PM), show all is fine. 

    I note that the time of wipeout was just before lunchtime, and was 
at the same local time as yesterday's spectral line observation which 
was wiped out by an *enormous* emission centered at 1484 MHz.   Might we 
have some microwave oven gone wild?  Or perhaps some piece of equipment, 
used intermittently?
