Some strange behavior noted in reduction of TPOL0003 data
taken on 15-Dec-2010 at C-band.
The attached printout shows the delays measured between ea09 and ea03
as a function of time (OSRO mode, 2 spectral windows, 2 pols) over the
3hrs of the run. Delays ramp from 5.7nsec to 17.4nsec over the run!
Other antennas were stable.
I had not heard of this behavior being reported, and it was evidently
transient (not seen in Rick's flux density run).
