Project Phoenix typically observed from 5PM to 8 AM AST. I checked the
log for 20 Nov 2003 and we indeed went off the telescope at 8:00 AM
AST, 1200 UT. The Electronics Department was scheduled to perform
maintenance from 8AM until about 1:30 PM (1730UT). So that would cover
the time in question, 1350 UT.

High Angle Range WU, what is the highest acceptable design value

David Woolley covered this ...
Why is this not indiacted in the SETI client itself?
Why is the work unit not tagged as [meta-data] invalid for the PR
telescope,
if such high Angle Ranges are reached?
Good question ...
I don't know the answer ...
(I'm not helping much so far ...)
Anyone ever see a wu with such an angle range...?
Aha! Yes, I've recieved a number of these WU with angle range of
128.678
just as you have indicated in the table below.
They are all from 20 Nov 2003 at 13:50:05UTC just as you indicate in
the
table below. This is the time frame that Project Phoenix was at
Arecibo
doing their data collection. Perhaps Peter Backus can check the logs
to
see what was going on at this time?
Even though the End RA is wrong (should be 37.066 - 24.000 = 13.066
hours), I think the angle range is right. That is, I don't think the
End
RA being wrong caused the angle range to be calculated in error.
