Limitations to Dual Frequency Ionosphere Corrections for Frequency Switched K-Q-Band Observations with the VLBAA series of VLBA experiments were carried out at K and Q bands for astrometry and imaging within the KQ VLBI Survey Collaboration. The paired K and Q observations of each source are separated by approximately 3 minutes of time. We investigate the delay effect of the ionosphere between K and Q bands involving the interscan separation. This differential delay effect is intermixed with the differential fluctuation effect of the troposphere.
