WEATHER COMMENT: Tue Nov 22 17:03:18 GMT 1994
Scattered cirrus, wind 5 mph from the south, temp=38 F.


DPMON COMMENT: Tue Nov 22 17:10:06 GMT 1994
Instrument is down due to tape drive problems, no data will be taken but 	I'll run it in manual mode to monitor the sun.


MKIII COMMENT: Tue Nov 22 17:11:30 GMT 1994
Need a couple more minutes before it can see over the dome wall.


COMMENT: Tue Nov 22 18:18:35 GMT 1994
Aligned GONG instrument yesterday afternoon and this morning.  Declination
now appears to be set correctly (it was close before), but RA varies a bit
due to looseness at the RA pivot point for the instrument head and from the
imbalance of the telescope when positioned to avoid contact with the mount.
I'll see if this can be improved.

Slid GONG instrument tube in its mount to give a better balance in hopes of
improving the RA tracking.  This position requires that we readjust the tube
position around the time of the vernal equinox to avoid interference as we
adjust the instrument for declination.  Maybe at that time we could attach
some weights to the tube near the objective to achieve the desired balance.
The instrument requires special tools to take apart in order to work on the
RA looseness so I'll try this first.


WEATHER COMMENT: Tue Nov 22 19:32:18 GMT 1994
Altocumulus clouds are getting thicker.
