Remote recording at JIVE
15/11/2021
During a recent (November 7) experiment, a single scan of Westerbork data was sent directly to JIVE via the Wb-JIVE
optical-fibre, where it was recorded on a Mark5 unit. The same data were also recorded on tape at Westerbork. Last week the
tape and disk data were correlated, giving good confidence that the remote recording was good. Final confirmation was
achieved when the Westerbork disk was correlated with Effelsberg data - The data recording rate was 256Mb/s

The EVN MkIV Data Processor at JIVE has achieved quarter-second integrations using the whole correlator. This improvement is the first step along the way to the Post-Correlator Integrator and recirculation.
