The tied array uses the current 8x16 MHz IF system. It is also possible to use only a single dish, to avoid problems with bandwidth and the narrow fan beam of the tied array. At 5cm only a single 25m telescope is used. Note: Hour-angle restriction is +- 6 h (c) Arecibo may be available for a small amount of time during EVN sessions for proposals which justify a need for its exceptionally high sensitivity. Proposals need only be submitted to the EVN. Note hour-angle limits: Max +- 1h20m (Dec 20) decreasing to +- 30m (Dec 0 and ~36) (d) These non-EVN telescopes may be requested for VLBI observations together with the EVN, but their use must be arranged by the Proposers themselves by application to the relevant observatory See also http://www.mpifr-bonn.mpg.de/EVN/EVNaffiliatecode.txt (e) The new Yebes 40m telescope is operational at 1.3cm, 3.6cm, 5cm, 6cm and 13cm (June 2009).

Manual changes: Nt (1h) (a) Cambridge normally available only during joint EVN/MERLIN sessions (d) Jb-2 normally used at 18 and 21 cm only when Jb-1 not available (but may replace Jb-1 in EVN-MERLIN sessions with prior justification) (b) Tsys values at Westerbork assume 14 telescopes of the tied array (since 2009 only 13 telescopes are available in the array as one is used for tests of APERTIF) At single polarization and Upper and Low sidebands, only 8 different frequency settings are allowed by the TADUmax (eg. S or X band). (e) Using the Lovell antenna the duration of any two adjacent scans must add up to at least 10min. (Contact A. Gunn for more details) (+) New 7-beam 1.3 cm receiver at Medicina. Only the central beam is used for VLBI (October 2008). (!) The Dual polarization RX at 43GHz in Metsahovi is currently out of service (Jun 2005) but can become available if there is proposal demand. The SEFD reported is from the old receiver. On the S/X receiver RCP only is installed. SEDF from the Geodesy SKED programme. The S/X receiver belongs to the Finnish Geodetic Institute and is thus not generally available for EVN observations by default. PIs wishing to use the receiver need to contact Metsahovi to initiate arrangements with FGI to get the permission to use the receiver. (-) Rob34 (DSS-65) At 13cm a HEMT RX (comissioned 2006). At 3.6cm a MASER rx (SEFD specified in the table) and a HEMT rx (SEFD 156Jy). For Rob70: At 13cm a maser RX (SEFD in the table) and a HEMT RX, SEFD=24, all other receivers are HEMTs. 7mm RX (commisioned in 2008) at one of the 34m telescopes (DSS-54) Plans for Dual Pol 18cm and 6cm at Rob70 (%) 30cm Frequency range: See Table IIIC (#) See Table IIIA (f) New 49cm receiver in Urumqi.

Two Mk5A units are now available, one is connected to Cm. In special cases, changes in this arrangement could made, by prior consultation with Jb VLBI Friend. It is possible that another MERLIN outstation will be recorded in the Mark5A terminal connected to Cm. $ At Effelsberg: use the MK4 terminal for projects requiring > 8 BBCs, and for MK4 modes (>256 Mb/s); use the VLBA terminal for experiments that require 8 or less BBCs in particular: global, VLBA correlator, VLBA modes, all requiring frequency-agility. Both the Mk4 DATA aquisition Terminal and the VLBA Terminal can be connected to the Mark 5A recorder. The Mark5B recorder will be implemented soon. @ 14 BBCs are installed at Mh. Only 8 are currently usable through all frequencies. ! Wb since Oct 2008 uses the TADUmax (Tied Array Distribution Unit) system connected to a Mark5B recorder which replaces the old analogue combination of Mark4 and Mark5A, for both tied-array and single dish observations. The old analogue system will be decommissioned soon. VLBA4 VLBA terminal with MK4 formatter all- All VLBA modes recorded with MK4 formatters have now been validated for inter-operability with the VLBA. However, there are still some restrictions resulting from differences between VLBA and MK4 terminals. Users should consult the document OK_modes.vlba which is available via anonymous ftp from: ftp.aoc.nrao.edu directory: pub all+ The full range of MK4 modes, including bit rates 1024 Mbps, is now operational (since Jan 2002). (a) 250 and 1000 kHz filter must be on external slots for MK4 terminals ===> NOT VALIDATED FOR USE WITH VLBA CORRELATOR (b) VLBA terminals have all filters for every BBC channel (c) Recommend use of "geodetic patching" modes at 13, 3.6 cm at Wz (d) Currently (2009) My and Km have VLBA4-compatible DAS with Mark5A recorders. The output data rate is limited to 128Mb/s. Chinese Digital Data aquisition systems and Mark5B+ recorders are under test. (yy) Planned for year 20yy ** Historical information on Mark3 modes and telescope/tape capabilities are** ** moved to http://www.evlbi.org/user_guide/EVNStatus_Historical_info.txt ** Cambridge Recording ------------------- The MERLIN signal from the Cambridge telescope returns to Jodrell on micro- wave links (max. BW = 30 MHz) and is recorded on a VLBA terminal with 8 BBCs. As a result, the VLBI observing bands which can be recorded are restricted. (But the signal CAN be 2-bit sampled when recording VLBA/MK4 modes) Although the rest of MERLIN is dual polarisation for all experiments, the Cambridge signal may be either (i) single LHC polarisation or (ii) dual circular polarisation, and can be decided by the PI. The default will be (i) for single polarisation and (ii) for dual polarisation VLBI recording modes. ============================================================================== MERLIN OBSERVING PARAMETERS --------------------------- 1) System parameters for observation of a continuum source C-Band L-Band ------ ------ Observing frequencies available 4.5-5.2 1.35-1.43 GHz (21cm) 1.57-1.73 GHz (18cm) Maximum bandwidth per polarisation ~ 15 ~ 15 MHz Maximum angular resolution ~ 40 ~ 150 milliarcsecs.
