 \subsection{Tidbinbilla}
+
+The following example is processing of some Tidbinbilla observations
+of NH$_3$ at 12~mm. Tidbinbilla has (at the time of observations) a
+single polarisation, but can process two IFs simultaneously. In the
+example, the first half of the observation was observing the (1,1) and
+(2,2) transitions simultaneously). The second half observed only the
+(4,4) transition due to bandwidth limitations. The data is position
+switched, observing first an reference to the west, then the source
+twice and finally reference to the east.
