 * Good weather (opacity of ~0.1) but still a lot of wind --> No observations
 * We reduced beam maps and updated geometries (skydip coefficients and kid selection)
 * We made an analysis on the Uranus beammap (20151124s171) to characterize the beam.
   --> total beam profile and primary beam gaussian fit.
   --> integrated total beam and primary beam to compute the secondary beam fraction.
