      • The Baseline Correlator + TFB Specs was approved by the CCB. Our proposal for the TFB mode is a wideband mode for e.g. continuum simultaneous with a narrowband mode for e.g. a spectral line. Please comment; we don't have to be limited to one but without a specific group there could be nearly an infinite number. See ALMA Early Science Modes SCID-90.00.00.00-011-A-LIS.
