Source Rising and Setting Times

coord is a useful program that tells you the altitude, azimuth, and rising and setting times of sources. Currently, this is most easily accessed via the Parkes website, http://www.parkes.atnf.csiro.au/cgi-bin/utilities/coord.cgi (though be sure to change from the default values when using for the ATCA, i.e., change the site to Australia Telescope Compact Array, and change the elevation limit to 12 degrees for cm observing at the ATCA).
