WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 16:32:25 GMT 1995
Cold, clear, brisk south wind, temp=50, relative humidity=60%.

Wed Jul 19 16:38:15 GMT 1995: Patrol Start

LOW-L COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 16:43:26 GMT 1995
L00279 popped from unit 0.  Loaded L00281.


DPMON COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 17:01:59 GMT 1995
Guiding was very sluggish and drifting for a while, occulting was
poor.  Seems to have stabilized.

Wed Jul 19 17:03:00 GMT 1995: Calibration

LOW-L COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 17:49:20 GMT 1995
L00280 popped out of unit 1.  Loaded L00282.  It popped out
so I cycled power on the drive and reloaded cassette.


LOW-L COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 17:52:48 GMT 1995
L00282 popped out again.  Cleaned drive.  Reloaded.

WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 19:15:14 GMT 1995
Orographic clouds forming nearby.


MKIII COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 19:18:14 GMT 1995
1812-1848 vdiff revealed possible guiding error in right ascension.
West was bright and there were strange concentric streaks.
Reset (cycled power and reset dec) guider and did another take.
coronal plot looks more like earlier scans.


COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 19:25:12 GMT 1995
NOAA will be shutting off power to GONG to connect the UConn
(or is it MIT?) shelter to the same power feed at around 2000 UT.
I will be going down there to monitor the GONG building
temperature when they are ready to do the connection.  GONG
UPS should keep the instrument system going, but lights and
A/C among other things will be shut down when power is cut.



COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 19:40:11 GMT 1995
Opening top of dome.


WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 19:44:20 GMT 1995
South wind has died down, this may cause the orographic clouds to
build up over the site now.


COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 20:00:03 GMT 1995
Going down the hill to check on NOAA's timetable for powerdown.
(Powerdown will only affect GONG, not MLSO).  Charlie and crew
arrived to do some construction work for GONG.  This may increase
the sky noise if they create sawdust, or trample the lava very
much.


WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 20:13:18 GMT 1995
In orographic clouds.  Will shut down for now and close the
dome, air moist due to remnants of former hurricane Barbara
visiting the Big Isle.

Wed Jul 19 20:15:00 GMT 1995: Patrol End

COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 20:16:45 GMT 1995
Returning to GONG to monitor shutdown.


WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 21:37:01 GMT 1995
In orographic clouds.


COMMENT: Wed Jul 19 21:37:20 GMT 1995
GONG power was off from 2030-2048.  Instrument ran without skipping 
a beat, only lights and A/C shutdown.  Also gave tour of GONG
and MLSO to a high school physics teacher that had accompanied 
Charlie up here.

Shutting down for the day.
