HOB didn't record first tape, not onsource till 20:58. TID off 15:20 to 15:30 (problem pcgs off around 15:54) HART finishes at 22:00 NOTE: recording S and X band, thus freq 2 (X band) has a much lower signal-noise ratio as expected. Correlation was performed twice. Once in which both frequencies were correlated separately. The other in which both frequencies were recorded at once. The latter appears to have worked successfully and was the one used into AIPS.
