do not have good baseline positions determined for them because they were
moved to their present location recently. Please check for any significant
errors and let the Data Analysts (email - analysts@nrao.edu) know what you
find. Thank you.

21Nov 9:10:49
Your data were taken with the new EVLA computer system controlling the
"Array. The data flagger is still incomplete for some EVLA failure modes, "
so observers should carefully review their calibrator observations for
these flagger failures.

21Nov 9:10:49
We are currently including all checked-out (operational) EVLA antennas in
"the VLA by default. For your project, we have included the following EVLA"
antennas in the array: 11 13 14 16 17 18 19 21 23 24 25 26

21Nov 9:10:49
Please note that using the EVLA antennas is a shared-risk operation
and we cannot guarantee that useful data will be produced by these
antennas. Users should consult the web page
http://www.vla.nrao.edu/astro/guides/evlareturn
for known problems and workarounds in using the EVLA antennas with
the VLA. We would like your input and feedback on the use of the
EVLA antennas in your project; please send all comments and/or
questions to gvanmoor@aoc.nrao.edu.
