Hardware Needs through the end of the year
26jun03 bsm

I. Caltech Continuum Backend

 A) CDR Support
 -CDR in mid to late September (tentatively)
 -work needed: 
   -->thorough and critical review of documentation (probably by at least
	2, ideally, all 4 of John, Roger, Galen & Rich).
   -->1 full day of meetings for these 4

 B) Continued consultation (1 hour per week average for 1 electronics expert; possibly more--
	and some support from Galen, although with the interfaces defined
	this shouldn't be much) through the end of the year

	We may also need some consultation from Dennis as Caltech defines
	the packaging interface.

II. Penn Array Receiver

 A) CDR support: CDR in late August or early September?

 B) Continued consultation at roughly 1 hour per week through the end of
	the year; until the CDR, this should be 2 hours per week.

 C) Design & Construction of RFI crate

 D) Shop time for construction of the Penn Array dewar

III. Site Characterization Hardware --> this can wait until early next year for
	completion but we will have K, Ka, & Q on the telescope and we need
	to start getting experience relating the data to real astronomy. This
	can't wait until we are commissioning W band or Penn Array.

 A) Tipper
 B) Site interferometer
