Hi Cormac,

Are we expecting to use Parkes in v544a? Because I don't see it scheduled on the wiki, but we have time allocated for the experiment on the telescope (according to the PORTAL).

Jamie

hi Stuart,

my experience is that modern rubidiums are barely adequate for L-band, so I would not expect data acquired at 8 GHz to be of any use for interferometry.

cheers,
Cormac.
