Then the program stalled. I restarted it now. PSPT COMMENT: Sun Feb 3 18:18:03 GMT 2002 Observing. **PICS PROBLEM**: Sun Feb 3 18:18:32 GMT 2002 After doing a Kill/Run cycle the objective wheel no longer is rotated until a timeout after each limb or disk image, and the position indicating LEDs are working. PICS COMMENT: Sun Feb 3 18:24:25 GMT 2002 So far the images all look beautifully sharp, there are the same tiny specks of dust on the image that I couldn't remove yesterday but no large dust like before I worked on it yesterday. I may leave the focus alone and try removing the dust later on. **MKIV PROBLEM**: Sun Feb 3 18:30:45 GMT 2002 The corona looks faint compared to normal, it was faint yesterday too. Maybe those Corrects changed some kind of brightness scaling?

I'll let it run to see what happens, right now it is running and taking uncentered images. **PSPT PROBLEM**: Sun Feb 3 18:41:02 GMT 2002 The images are now centered and the active mirror is on.

PICS COMMENT: Sun Feb 3 20:10:17 GMT 2002 Pausing to try to clear dust better.

PICS COMMENT: Sun Feb 3 20:42:51 GMT 2002 OK, that's the best I can make it with the airbrush blower, I don't think anything changed, but it was good to begin with. So PICS is now focused and cleared of dust on the CCD.
