Agenda for VLBA Pulsar Gate Design Review Meeting

       
               Meeting date : 27 June 1997, 01:30 pm MDT



    I.   General Overview of the VLBA Correlator
 

    II.  Description of the Pulsar Gate Hardware in the Correlator

         - Observing and correlating restrictions


    III. Description of the Pulsar Gate Model and Control Software

         - Information Origin and Flow

         - Pulsar gate weights in AIPS


    IV.  Special Topics for Discussion

         - What observing and correlating modes should we expect

         - How fast will observers switch between pulsars

         - Non-VLBA observatories and recording systems

         - Who provides the absolute pulsar phase ephemeris (***)

         - Pulsar timing reference frame vs. USNO VLBI reference frame
