Mauna Loa Solar Observatory Observer's Log ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Feb 18 17:20:03 GMT 1996 Year: 96 Doy: 049 Observer: yasukawa console Feb 18 17:16 WEATHER COMMENT: Sun Feb 18 17:20:21 GMT 1996 Cold, continued heavy altostratus and cirrus overcast, strong southwest wind 30mph. Observations unlikely. LOW-L COMMENT: Sun Feb 18 17:21:18 GMT 1996 L00734 popped out of drive 0 this morning, since yesterday was totally overcast, I popped it back in and reset computer to restart it. Drive 0 tried initializing but popped tape back out. I will check connector to see if the bent connector problem that R-squared found on the drive extends to the cable too. LOW-L COMMENT: Sun Feb 18 17:42:36 GMT 1996 Couldn't see any defect, but tape still pops out. Loaded L00374 into unit 1 and turned unit 0 off. Will run with one drive for now. I will request a new cable and test cable before sending drive back to vendor again. Sun Feb 18 18:21:04 GMT 1996: Filemark
