DBBC v104 testing at Hb

Edited /usr2/control/equip.ctl and changed version to v104
on DBBC, started DBBC2 Control DDC v104_2.exe
created dbbc_config_file_104_calibration.txt
in pcfs:
- dbbc=load=dbbc_config_file_104_calibration.txt
- dbbc=reconf
- dbbc=pps_sync
- smlstat
- smlrf=on (freq is 764 MHz, level = -25)
- dbbc=dbbcgain=all,man
- dbbc=calibration
- wrote 2013-275T000650-calib.txt
  - First nulls at 102, 83, 89, 88
- dbbc=dbbcgain=all,agc
on DBBC, created these files in C:\DBBC_CONF with default phase settings as shown above
- dbbc_config_file_104_point.txt
- dbbc_config_file_104_rapid.txt
on PCFS in /usr2/proc, edit point.prc and station.prc to point to these new config files
smlrf=off
Tried :
- proc=r4604hb
- setupsx
- caltsys : values looked plausible
- proc=point
- initp
- virgoa
- fivept
- Offsets look good
- onoff x 3. Some variation. S-band RFI obvious. Weather overcast - problem?
- azeloff=0d,0d
- then a bunch of Tsys measurements at zenith. Numbers looks consistent?
