Deliverable D56 / SA2.15 e-VLBI test observations, Metsahovi * due month 18 * delivered month 13 On 05 March 2007, Zsolt Paragi provided the following email to confirm the deliverable: Date: Mon, 05 Mar 2007 13:01:51 +0100 (CET) From: Zsolt Paragi To: EVNtech Subject: EVNtech: First K-band e-EVN, first e-VLBI fringes to Mh Hi, Today we had an e-VLBI fringe test in K-band, prior to the F07K1 ftp test. The participating telescopes were Cm, Jb2, Mc, Mh, and On60. The data rate was 256 Mbps. This was our first e-VLBI test at 1.cm, and the first one with Metsahovi. The test was a complete success, with fringes to all telescopes (see attached plot; note that Cm bandwidth is limited to 128 Mbps because of the microwave link). Onsala had a new dualpol K-band receiver which performed very well. The Jb and Cm sensitivities may have been a bit worse than expected, likely due to the windy weather or pointing.
