Configurations

Standard configurations for the winter period are:

5 Antenna configurations
Name Stations
D W05 W00 E03 N05 N09
C1 W05 W01 E10 N07 N13
C2 W12 W09 E10 N05 N15
B1 W12 E18 E23 N13 N20
B2 W23 W12 E12 N17 N29
A W27 W23 E16 E24 N29

The following configuration sets are available:

Set Configs Main purpose
D D ``Low'' resolution at 1.3 mm
CD D, C2 or C1 3.5'' resolution at 3mm, 1.8'' resolution at 1.3 mm
CC C1, C2 Slightly higher resolution than CD.
BC B1, C2 2'' resolution at 3 mm
BB B1, B2, C2 Better sensitivity than BC
AB A, B1, B2 1'' resolution at 3 mm, 0.5'' resolution at 1.3mm

There is a possibility of choice between CD and CC arrays when the C2 configuration has been performed for sources in which the resolution choice is unclear. At a higher resolution level, a similar choice between CC and BC or BB is possible.

Finally, enter ANY in the proposal form if your project doesn't need any particular configuration.
