Tests of the Observing Modes

Tests made on 20151021

On 20151021, the atmospheric conditions where poor (tau 225 GHz in the range 0.5-1.0), with fog. We were unable to obtain a proper focus, so we moved to test the observing modes. For this we used Jupiter + Ganymede with maps large enough normally to see both targets and check that the observing modes actually perform as expected. No skydip corrections where available at the time.

Observations where done between 04:24 and 06:16 UT.
