Plan for tonight (126 pixels 2mm, 90 pixels 1.25mm): Plan for tonight (126 pixels 2mm, 90 pixels 1.25mm): 126 pixels 2mm - good noise; 8 pixels 1mm noise should be good (reduce the number of pixels so that total tones power below amplifier saturation). Plan for tonight (126 pixels 2mm, 90 pixels 1.25mm)

Pointing model was updated by Juan Penalver:
 .use 31 pointing values obtained yesterday
 .dispersion goes from 2.8 to 2.5 arcsec.

 .Quick description of the session: Proceed with the observing procedures (see [[ListOfAstroTarget2012N5]]): geom, pointing cross, focus, etc. (e.g.check plateau on strong sources) then fainter and fainter sources to check sensitivity.  .Quick description of the session: see .[[http://www.iram.es/IRAMES/mainWiki/DailyReports5#Monday_19.2BAC8-11|Daily Report]]
