This is an old revision of the document!
The procedure to follow here will depend on whether the data are being transferred to the correlator electronically (eTransfer) or shipped:
From | To: | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Bonn | Washington | Haystack | VLBA | |
Hb | eTransfer | eTransfer | ship | ship |
Ho | eTransfer | eTransfer | ship | ship |
Ke | eTransfer (*) | ship | ship | ship |
Yg | eTransfer (*) | ship | ship | ship |
* = modules are shipped to Hobart and then eTransferred |
Regardless of whether the data are to be shipped or eTransferred please follow these notes on preparing the comments file and transferring the logs.

Some additional steps are required when shipping modules and are done at the observatories:
