MKIV COMMENT: Thu Aug 19 18:09:04 GMT 1999 Will do another Correct then 2 Calibrations like yesterday to test some new code.

I tried a Calibration but the scans looked like concentric rings of noise. I told David, then reloaded the old correctors and restarted Patrol for now. We need the network back up so he can look at some things from there. **MLSO PROBLEM**: Thu Aug 19 18:53:10 GMT 1999 NOAA said the problem may be a massive one originating in Manoa. Darryl (their network admin. guy) will be up here in about 45 minutes.

Thu Aug 19 20:26:09 GMT 1999 MKIV Start Cal **MKIV PROBLEM**: Thu Aug 19 20:26:32 GMT 1999 Couldn't get a Calibration, MCP stalled. Reset Kcc, then MCP monitor wouldn't come up, it stayed in Power Saving Mode. Reset KCC again and MCP monitor came up OK but then the barrel got stuck at a limit. Turned off the analog power and the power strip up in the dome and repointed barrel to other extreme limit then turned on power strip and analog power. After the barrel stopped at 176 successfully and the MCP monitor was working I started the first of 2 Calibrations. WEATHER COMMENT: Thu Aug 19 20:48:41 GMT 1999 Orographic clouds are starting to pass over. Thu Aug 19 20:56:02 GMT 1999 MKIV Start Cal MKIV COMMENT: Thu Aug 19 20:56:06 GMT 1999 Starting 2nd cal.
