The process documented here is very specific to the Canadian VLBI environment. At ARO two types of schedules must be run, one controlling the Mk3 rack and tape recorder, the other controlling the S2 system. At the CTVA only S2-specific schedules are run, which are almost identical to the S2 schedules run at ARO because the two stations are always observing together. The Yellowknife Geophysical Observatory currently runs Mk3-specific schedules only, but will be adapted for S2 operations in the near future. These commands will become available as the S2 system is completed and is integrated with the local antenna equipment.
Feedback is welcome.
