TPTCSOOF_080510 (data were actually recorded on 2008_05_09)

Goal: Test the use of thermal Zernike offsets, dial in near-real time corrections
Observers: Todd, Melinda
Operator: Donna

Conditions: cloudy, with occasional sprinkles

Frequency: Ka band with CCB
Pointing/focus on 0319_4130:
- scan 14-18
- scan 19-23
OOF map paramenters
- Trajectory: ka-19rows80.fits
- Focus change: +/-38mm (appropriate for band 3 = 38 GHz)
First map (0319+4130, just before transit, near zenith):
- 24 = 2008_05_09_17:07:15.fits (LFC_Y = -4.15 mm)
- 25 = 2008_05_09_17:13:15.fits (LFC_Y = +33.85)
- 26 = 2008_05_09_17:19:19.fits (LFC_Y = -42.15)
Corrections derived for band 3 (38 GHz)
- /home/groups/ptcs/oof-tng/TPTCSOOF_080510/oofout/s24-3-db-000/z6/katest.fits
- dialed in using Melinda's script from project TINT, copied into TPTCSOOF as kaZtest (contains command sendThermal())
Second map (0319+4130, just after transit, near zenith):
- 27 = 2008_05_09_17:41:50.fits (LFC_Y = -4.15)
- 28 = 2008_05_09_17:47:50.fits (LFC_Y = +33.85)
- 29 = 2008_05_09_17:53:53.fits (aborted due to lack of time)
