Sky looks clear. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 17:19:36 GMT 2020 PM Blew off Kcor O1 ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 17:19:46 GMT 2020 Windows opened upstairs ___end___ KCOR COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 17:58:04 GMT 2020 Kcor above dome ___end___ Tue Feb 04 17:58:51 GMT 2020 Kcor Focus/alignment program exited Tue Feb 04 18:03:03 GMT 2020 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 18:05:31 GMT 2020 Did an extra blowing off of the Kcor O1 front when the Sun fully illuminated it to try and address the bullet holes from yesterday. Two of the holes look like the ones I pointed out of Sunday that didn't go away after blowing off the lens. We will see what the NRGFs look like but if this doesn't hlp, we may need another washing. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 18:21:39 GMT 2020 Looks like I was able to get most of the bullet holes off except the ones in the East and Southeast as before. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 18:41:24 GMT 2020 Only the NRGF stream has popped up this morning. ___end___ GONG COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 18:44:41 GMT 2020 Heading down to the GONG shelter to do the actual logic board switch, as I did the inverter board last week. ___end___ GONG COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 19:45:43 GMT 2020 As Allen noticed, we do not have a spare logic board on site to do the swap that GONG requested. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 19:51:09 GMT 2020 Looking real hard at the NRGFs', it seems like what I blew off this morning did not actually help as I can faintly see a bullet hole in the Northeast-North part of the images. Unfortunately, I do not feel comfortable blowing off the back side of the O1. Going to try another blow off of the front of the O1 to see if I can address those bullet holes. ___end___ Tue Feb 04 19:51:02 GMT 2020 KCOR End Patrol Tue Feb 04 19:51:11 GMT 2020 KCOR End Patrol Tue Feb 04 19:57:27 GMT 2020 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol KCOR COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 20:02:40 GMT 2020 I can still faintly see the bullet hole in the Northeast North part of the images. I think the O1 needs to be washed... ___end___ Tue Feb 04 20:39:23 GMT 2020 KCOR End Patrol Tue Feb 04 20:39:23 GMT 2020 KCOR Start Calibration script: c:\kcor\mlso-calibration22deg-20171025.ini Tue Feb 04 20:54:38 GMT 2020 KCOR End Calibration Script Tue Feb 04 20:54:54 GMT 2020 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Tue Feb 04 20:54:55 GMT 2020 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol GPS COMMENT by MLSO: Tue Feb 04 21:45:07 GMT 2020 Successfully logged in to system Good disk mount GPS software running Last 5 GPS data files are: dataout_2020_034_2226.bin 97105816 dataoutiq_2020_031_2226.bin 2147483647 dataoutiq_2020_032_2226.bin 2147483647 dataoutiq_2020_033_2226.bin 2147483647 dataoutiq_2020_034_2226.bin 2147483647 ___end___ Tue Feb 04 22:13:21 GMT 2020 KCOR End Patrol GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 22:15:01 GMT 2020 Clouds seem to b passing, kcor stopped ___end___ Tue Feb 04 22:16:50 GMT 2020 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Tue Feb 04 22:26:04 GMT 2020 KCOR End Patrol Tue Feb 04 22:26:08 GMT 2020 KCOR End Patrol GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 04 22:38:33 GMT 2020 Some clouds are looking a little low, closing the dome just in case ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: waters: Wed Feb 05 02:19:35 GMT 2020 Not too bad this morning and the aerosols started to get a little bad when I had to stop for clouds.
