The steps in making a pointing model are listed below. ... While tracking the source rise to set, the tiedowns are pulled through a range of about 14 inches (taking 14 minutes) . ... We need a strong point source as sband because we want to measure the peak even when we are out of focus (so we can determine the best za location). ... Time: this takes about 80 hours (averaging 2 hours/source with wait time.. ... so 4 days 12 hours a day will probably work when you include the time for the source. ...
