Epoch 1: bc123c Observe date : 2002JUL02/183 Reduction date : 2002 Sep 07 Using autoaips 0.9.9b on Parallax disk 7 -------------------------------- SUMMARY ---------------------------------- In-beam #1 is hinted at by a rough, slightly bright patch In-beam #2 is detected, is quite extended with a peak of only 1.9 mJy Pulsar was not detected. Recomendation : Drop this pulsar from the project. It is very unlikely that in a second observation one of the sources will appear bright enough for calibration. ---------------------------- DETAILS OF REDUCTION ------------------------- INBEAM 1 : ib_cal_name1 = J0108-14.06 ib_cal_ra1 = 01:07:48.27484 ib_cal_dec1 = -14:13:45.3600 ib_cal_s14001= 4.2 # mJy ib_cal_sep1 = 18.8 # arcmin 1.
