... These are ``quirks'' rather than ``bugs''. Below is a list of quirks. When loading a file and ``Reset Intensity Upon File Load'' is disabled, the intensity range of the previous image will be used. ... When moving between two images (such as when blinking, or when loading a new image), the display system attempts to retain the old image parameters (i.e. zoom box). What is retained are the corners of the zoom box measured in image pixel co-ordinates, not world co-ordinates. ...

Position Switching Separation Tolerance with Arecibo in L-Band Travis McIntyre The University of New Mexico July 2010 Revised December 2013 Abstract The blocked telescope aperture at Arecibo creates standing waves in the bandpass around 1MHz. ... Test observations with Arecibo in L-Band show that position switching effectively removes standing waves for separations of one half FWHM or less. Standing waves remain for separations of one FWHM, increasing the rms of the baseline by 20%. ...

Next Previous Contents . This means that an interrupt happened that no driver expected. ... In many cases you can safely ignore this error message, especially if it only happens once or twice at boot-time. For boot-time messages, look at the messages which are nearby for a clue as to what is going on. For example, if probing is going on, perhaps a probe for a physical device caused that device to issue an interrupt that the driver didn't expect. ...
