[[http://www.iram.es/IRAMES/mainWiki/Continuum/NIKA2/Main#s17_pool:_24-31_October_2017|Back to the NIKA2 1st Science pool]] New frequency sweep done at beginning of the run on A2 => new KID numbering, the ref pix is now 824 (it's the same as in previous run, but its number was 823). No new freq sweep on A1 & A3; but several KIDs that were not usable previously are now usable (thanks to relatively low stable tau). Pointing array: A2 (pix 824). Focus array: A1. == Day to day observation logbook == '''Table for gain curve task (3C84, i.e. 0316+413 in nikas-17)''' || Dates || UT || scan # || elevation || comment || || 25-10-2017 || 4:00 || 50 || 58d || otf 8x4 || || 25-10-2017 || 5:36 || 70 || 40d || otf ?? || || 26-10-2017 || 19:56 || 254 || 31d || otf 8x5 || || 26-10-2017 || 22:51 || 316 || 63d || otf 8x5 || '''Thursday 27th october 2017''' Beammap on Uranus s49 elev=40deg tau=0.25 stable Gain curve task : 3C84 (0316+413) see table above.
