+====== LBA Observations with AuScope Antennas ======
+With Katherine & Yarragadee joining the LBA, experiments using them in a non-geodetic mode are becoming more frequent. This is a guide to setting up the AuScope dishes for LBA observations. Katherine is being used as an example here. These notes assume some familiarity with the system from IVS observing. If you’re completely new to this, please have a read through the AuScope Wiki in parallel for definitions, etc. Some useful starting points

+The laborious work is drudging the schedules & preparing the DBBC configurations. These can be done ahead of time (and really do need to be as they’re quite time consuming).
