Observation log NIKA/IRAM 2011 Sheet No: 01 Date: 20111017 Observer: SL+FXD+CH
scans 315 to 322: tests with various receiver and backends + test finding best group of pixel for focus and pointing => only RECEIVER + BACKEND combination that works to create fits in ncsServer is to choose heterodynes devices: Receiver E090, Backend BBC change also the script OTF_pointing with larger map (100"x60" now) because the min totf allowed is 10s.
