Fringe Searching and Pulsar Gating

The procedures set out here for fringe searching set up the correlator for the rest of the experiment. After all this is done, it is nearly a matter of hitting `go' and it should run smoothly. There is a checklist on the wall in the correlator room which is more or less a summary of the following sets of procedures. It has been duplicated at
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/vlbi/correlator/checklist.html
and in Appendix D in this document.
