Plots of closure amplitudes at the X band for source 0851+202 (OJ 287) as a function of GMST for two quadrangles, (a) KATH12MNYALES20YARRA12MWETTZELL and (b) KATH12MWETTZELLYARRA12MMATERA. See Figure 5 for a description of the plot design. The magnitudes of the structure effect on closure amplitudes evolved within 6 yr from 0.5 to 4 two times and from 0.5 to 2 several times. The timescale of the evolution is less than 1 yr. Very extended structure is detected.
