----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mauna Loa Solar Observatory Observer's Log ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Nov 17 17:38:19 GMT 2002 Year: 02 Doy: 321 Observer: koon WEATHER COMMENT: Sun Nov 17 17:38:22 GMT 2002 Medium to thick cirrostratus overcast, wind=10 mph from the SE, temp=48 F. COMMENT: Sun Nov 17 17:40:12 GMT 2002 Spar still not tracking sun yet. COMMENT: Sun Nov 17 17:40:40 GMT 2002 I stopped on the way up and checked out the mysterious orange object I've seen on the downhill side of the road about 100 yards from the road, it has been there for about a week. It looks like a weather balloon tied to an orange parachute, no treasure was found at the end of the dangle string - it was broken off. **GONG PROBLEM**: Sun Nov 17 17:43:46 GMT 2002 I finally fixed the network speed problem with Bert's help. We borrowed the dedicated 100 Mbit media converter from Groundwinds and it works when combined with the newer GONG hub in the shelter and the 100BaseFX connection port on the network switch up here. This was my suggestion (minus the hub) months ago, that they send us a dedicated 100Base converter, but they sent 10/100 converters and hub and switch instead. I'm not sure why the hub is needed but it has to do with the "handshaking" at the Sparc Ultra 10 in the shelter. We now have the 10 Mbit connection reconnected until they send us the dedicated 100Base converter, then we'll have a 100 Mbit connection between MLSO and the GONG shelter. This work was done yesterday after the log was closed so I'm entering it in today's log.
