 +In addition to files for each dataset, there is a file [[https://cloud.mpifr-bonn.mpg.de/index.php/s/wnCcqweKcH8rMyg|ALLFIRST_auto_noisevar.pdf]], which consists of the first overview pages from all PDF files (from all data sets). For some reason the colours look a bit strange in this file.

-The total power measurements in XX and YY are easiest to interpret. Without variation, they would be zero. Over longer scans (marked by vertical green lines), we sometimes see gradients. These can be due to the changing elevation and are not of concern. Some antennas, in this observation particularly in YY, have stronger variations, in particular intermittend high levels and sudden changes of levels.+The total power measurements in XX and YY are easiest to interpret.

 real(XY) shows the linear polarisation level of the noise. It is generally relatively constant over time. The orthogonal component, imag(XY), on the other hand, often changes rapidly with the variations in YY. real(XY) shows the linear polarisation level of the noise.
