Correlator news:

A compromise has been found with the manufacturer of the unreliable correlator chips to acquire a new batch of 1254 correlator chips. They have been installed in the Pico Veleta and Plateau de Bure correlator units in June. The failure rate has dropped from 1 per day to zero (over a 2 month period). This is likely to materialize an happy end of this problem.
