        Verification and checkout of 12m is under way.

1. Trained the KPGO staff on using the 12m signal chain first week of February
2. On Feb. 5th successfully obtained fringes on source 1749+096 with GGAO 12m and Westford Broadband system
3. On Feb 12th executed a mixed mode observation, between the 12m and the Kk 20 S/X antenna and successfully obtained
   fringes.
4. We are presently exercising the integrated system (Field system control of antenna and backend subsystems).
   1. This shakedown period is leading to identifying shortcomings in operational manuals and procedures, along
      with potential bugs before the acceptance review.
5. Full summary of the ongoings at KPGO can be found here: http://space-geodesy.nasa.gov/blogs/KPGO/index.html
