The Nineth Cambridge Catalog of Radio Sources (9C) is an astronomical catalogue of celestial radio sources as measured at 15-GHz. It was published in 2003 by the Cavendish Astrophysics Group of the University of Cambridge. The catalogue was originally made in order to locate radio sources which were interfering with observations using the Very Small Array, but the catalogue has also proved useful for other astronomical programs. The Cavendish Astrophysics Group (formerly the Radio Astronomy Group) is based at the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge University. ... The University of Cambridge is the second-oldest university in the English-speaking world, with one of the most selective entry requirements in the United Kingdom. ... The Ryle Telescope was re-arranged to form the long baseline array of AMI after this photo was taken. ... Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory is home to a number of large aperture synthesis radio telescopes, including the One-Mile Telescope, 5km Ryle Telescope, and the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager. ... The Very Small Array is a 14-element interferometer perched at an elevation of 3000 metres on Tenerife in the Canary Islands. ... The Very Small Array is a 14-element interferometer perched at an elevation of 3000 metres on Tenerife in the Canary Islands. ... An astronomical catalog is a list or tabulation of astronomical objects, typically grouped together because they share a common type, morphology, origin, means of detection, or method of discovery. ... 2003 is a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ... The Cavendish Astrophysics Group (formerly the Radio Astronomy Group) is based at the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge University. ... The University of Cambridge is the second-oldest university in the English-speaking world, with one of the most selective entry requirements in the United Kingdom. ... The Very Small Array is a 14-element interferometer perched at an elevation of 3000 metres on Tenerife in the Canary Islands. ...


Sources are labelled 9C JHHMM+DDMM where HHMM+DDMM are the coordinates in the J2000 system, e.g. 9C J0934+2756. The J2000. ...

New Product 9C: 3" Senko (1090 words)
I started to favor the 9C Senko over other craw lure styles, says Bassdozer, because the 9C imitates the tucked-in claw, leg and body posture of backward-scooting crayfish, which tuck in their claws and legs, and fold their tails underneath, therefore appearing cylindrical and stubby - just like a 9C - when crawdads scoot backwards.
A 9C Senko jig has the same spiraling fall as a tube jig on the drop, plus the inimitable gliding, puppy dog waggling tail action of a Senko when you retrieve the jig.
With this second rod, I precisely dropshot the 9C on the shadowy edges of deep ledges and underwater rocks beyond the effective depth of the weightless 9C.
