Continuum mosaic: Edge/noise problems between fields

(fields ar (center) and k (bottom-right))

This looks to be caused by significant depth differences. "I’m just looking at the two weblogs, and field k has a lower RMS, significantly smaller beam, and > 2x aggregate bandwidth compared to field ar" from Dan

Right, that's a huge difference in sensitivity: 83 uJy/beam in 1.57x0.929 = 56 uJy/beam in a 2.02x1.55" beam, so about 2x better noise.
