Feed rotation corrections for antennas having beam waveguide mounts

We report on the development of new code to support the beam waveguide antenna mount types in AIPS, which will allow polarisation analysis of observations made using these antennas. Beam Wave-guide antennas in VLBI are common in communication antennas that have been repurposed (e.g. Warkworth, Yamaguchi). The mount type affects the differential phase between the left and the right hand circular polarisations (LHC and RHC) for different points on the sky. We demonstrate that the corrections for the Warkworth beam wave guide antenna can be applied.
