Introduction

The process of preparing SBs for dynamic time is described in the general OPT chapters in this document. Much of the previously required information specific to dynamic SBs (in the VLA era) is now more streamlined and can be entered in the SB Information tab. Other information, such as the total length of the SB, is automatically generated. Below are some extra hints you might want to consider while entering this information and creating your SBs for dynamic time.

The NSF National Radio Astronomy Observatory and NSF Green Bank Observatory are facilities of the U.S. National Science Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc.

Founded in 1956, the NSF NRAO provides state-of-the-art radio telescope facilities for use by the international scientific community. NSF NRAO telescopes are open to all astronomers regardless of institutional or national affiliation. Observing time on NSF NRAO telescopes is available on a competitive basis to qualified scientists after evaluation of research proposals on the basis of scientific merit, the capability of the instruments to do the work, and the availability of the telescope during the requested time. NSF NRAO also provides both formal and informal programs in education and public outreach for teachers, students, the general public, and the media.
