Digging up LOFAR in Finland

Submitter: Anna Scaife
Description: Hi Jan

Thought you might like these? Examples of practical bandpass calibration from KAIRA :-)

It's generally ok for the elastic bungee to be below the snow line, but as soon as the wire gets covered even slightly then the bandpass drops. Then it's a case of digging it out, but of course you need to dig your way to the antenna first!

I'm out here with Poppy Martin and Derek McKay-Bukowski for the next week, so there may be more pictures to follow...

Cheers
Anna
