{Abstract. 
Write a brief summary of the data reduction and its outcomes} : 

Shinji has done this. I rechecked for fringes and amplitudes. No space
fringes, but also the amplitudes looked fine to me. Resolving point
source which would not produce space fringes. Lower than PLS, but so
what is new. The amplitude from ACCOR for Mopra drops ~ 23:00. This
correction looks to be too much. Raise this with someone.

# If GSCAL was used, report amplitude correction factors here. If GSCAL
# was used more than once, report the CUMULATIVE factor here (e.g if gscal
# reported a gain factor of 1.11 for HALCA the first time and 0.95 the 
# second time, the overall gain correction is 1.11 * 0.95 = 1.05.
