Mauna Loa Solar Observatory Observer's Log ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Mar 5 17:28:11 GMT 1996 Year: 96 Doy: 065 Observer: koon console Mar 5 17:26 WEATHER COMMENT: Tue Mar 5 17:28:18 GMT 1996 Clear sky, wind=25 mph from the WSW, temp=32 F. Tue Mar 5 17:35:49 GMT 1996: Patrol Start Tue Mar 5 18:00:04 GMT 1996: Calibration MKIII COMMENT: Tue Mar 5 18:40:41 GMT 1996 Tried doing a calibration, but the amplitude values printed for the benchmark diodes looked very low, this has been happening often within the last several observing days. The problem seems to go away later in the day. I'll try for a cal later. Tue Mar 5 19:00:02 GMT 1996: Calibration MKIII COMMENT: Tue Mar 5 19:38:10 GMT 1996 The second attempt at a calibration was successful. COMMENT: Tue Mar 5 19:47:36 GMT 1996 I'm going down to the GONG shelter to try to fix a problem with the Full Disc Diode. Tue Mar 5 20:02:57 GMT 1996: Calibration COMMENT: Tue Mar 5 20:37:44 GMT 1996 I'm back from the GONG shelter, fixed diode problem. Full Disc Diode amplifier signal cable was disconnected (Guillermo forgot to reconnect it after testing the amp when he was here). I used the O-scope to check the AC and DC components of the diode signal and they were OK, then reconnected the signal output cable and things sshould be back to normal now. Tue Mar 5 21:02:58 GMT 1996: Calibration DPMON COMMENT: Tue Mar 5 21:55:49 GMT 1996 Patrol was stalled for a while, I had to run Clearbusy to fix it.

Stopping for the day. COMMENT: Tue Mar 5 22:57:45 GMT 1996 Activity report: QP: 43; 55; 110; 120; 233; 242; 268; 289. No coronal activity.
