Dear ASCA users,

I am sending an ASCA observation schedule for the period of February 11-22.

Two announcements are made on the observation and operation.
(1) In the AO4 we made merging for a few targets between US and ESJ 
proposals to make final balance of exposure time. Four ESJ proposals 
that include Japanese CoIs explicitly in the list were considered for the 
targets of merging but we missed to cite one of the four in the list of 
accepted targets released.  That is NGC 985, which should appear in the 
MUJ category, with Fiore as PPI and Reynolds as CoPI. I apologize that 
we missed to cite Reynolds to be a CoPI of the target.

(2) The FACOM main frame computers of ISAS, that are engaged to control 
ISAS satellite operation and original telemetry data reduction, are now 
planned to be replaced in middle February. Hence the reduction of telemetry 
data and production of FRF will be delayed for about two weeks for the 
observations in middle and late February and the delay will be recovered 
by the end of March.
