First scans are bad because of the bottom of the dome slot blocking
the sun.

**MKIV PROBLEM**: Thu Aug 26 18:15:26 GMT 1999
I tried 3 Corrects.  The first one left a graph with some scattered points
but I missed the Dark portion and didn't see if the values were around 0.
The subsequent 2 gave similar graphs and the Dark values weren't around 0.
MKIV COMMENT: Thu Aug 26 18:23:21 GMT 1999
Did an End Day to position the barrel, then reset the KCC to load new
calibration software from David.  Will try a Correct again.

Doing another sequence to load new software into the KCC, then will try
Correct again.

MKIV COMMENT: Thu Aug 26 19:20:36 GMT 1999
Got a good Correct, now running a calibration before going back to Patrol.
**MKIII PROBLEM**: Thu Aug 26 19:41:36 GMT 1999
Yesterday afternoon and this morning the animated scans looked strange, 
there is a lot of brightness variations from scan to scan, it's like
every other scan is too dark for some reason.  For example, scans at
1920, 1928, and 1936 are darker than the scans in between.

**MKIV PROBLEM**: Thu Aug 26 20:37:13 GMT 1999
No scans since around 1955, barrel is stuck at 278, Reset the KCC.
COMMENT: Thu Aug 26 20:38:24 GMT 1999
Extended the dome slot.

**MKIV PROBLEM**: Thu Aug 26 20:51:19 GMT 1999
After I started the Patrol the barrel moved but no data were taken, the 
barrel was stopped at a limit (around 278).   I turned off the main mkIV
power switch and the spar power strip and rotated the barrel to the 
other limit and turned it all back on.  That turned out to be the limit
where the barrel normally gets stuck so that didn't help.  So I tried 
to point the barrel to near 0 degrees and repeated the sequence, then it
rotated to get stuck at around 83 degrees (limit) again because I
miscalculated.  The thing to do is to point the barrel about 3/4 
rotation from either limit to get it near 0 degrees so that it won't
be driven to a limit when the KCC is reset.

**MKIV PROBLEM**: Thu Aug 26 21:04:37 GMT 1999
OK, now Patrol is working correctly, I don't know what caused the 
initial problem where the barrel got stuck at the 270 degree limit.
