Toruń (Tr) Station Report

(TOG, Jodrell Bank, Nov. 2004)


Brief Report of Last EVN Sessions


All projects of May/June 2004 performed without serious problems. UHF carried out with new feeds and two linear polarisations. First ever Tr FTP fringes seen on May 20 (in N04C2).
October/November session experiments were recorded mostly on disks using Mk5. FTP fringes to Tr have been detected in both the bands (C and M) in all the scheduled tests.

Changes/Upgrades Made to Hardware/Software


Most recent FS version (9.7.3) has been installed before the last session.
For the May/June session Tr used Mk5 recorder brought on loan from JIVE.
In June 2004 own Mk5 arrived from Conduant. It was successfully used in number of eVLBI tests and a few science experiments between the last two sessions, as well as in the October/November session. First eVLBI fringes to Tr were seen on September 8 and Tr contributed to 4-station (with Cm, Wb and Ar) transatlantic real-time VLBI image two days later, which was followed by eVLBI science experiments on September 22.
