The radars highlighted in the square brackets for each interval should run rbspscan. This is presently the mode that also runs during CT-TRIG intervals (a full scan of at least 16 beams with an interleaved mini-scan of 3 beams, with a scan time of 2-min), as agreed by the PIs. The PIs/operators are encouraged to adapt the mode to best fit the geometry of the conjunctions (e.g., by adapting the range gates) - VAP footprint plots can be found at http://www.ion.le.ac.uk/~rcf11/RBSP/ . All other radars should run normalscan (with a scan time of 1-min).
