Helpdesk ticket for a search return we do not have in AAT, but legacy archive provides.

| high | Allow search filtering based on total time on source. | Med | For observing VLBA projects that incorporate other dishes (e.g. +Y1, +Y27 etc), the VLA files should be associated with the relevant VLBA segment and not considered as "mixed" projects. This has been descoped from ticket |
