VEGAS tests 15 January 2014

Goals

• Main goal: test mode 20-29 with KFPA and all eight banks
• If have time, try to take the two polarization of the X-band receiver and route to all eight banks of VEGAS in modes 2 and 3 to see how well different banks agree. Also check how flat the results look

Log

• created KFPA script mode 20 script
• ran, but failed to produce IF file
• Melinda is investigating
• Trying with simple configuration with spectrometer to see what works.
• also beam="all" doesn't validate, but beam = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,-1" does.
• fixed problem with frequencies (Amanda's fault) and problem with Accessor (GBT's fault)
• was able to run KFPA+VEGAS but the number of feeds and number of spectra windows wasn't right
• Melinda has a fix, but it needs to be tested. We're delaying things until after that test.
