Tue Aug 5 19:40:44 GMT 2003 MKIV End Patrol GONG COMMENT: Tue Aug 5 19:39:32 GMT 2003 Back from shelter. Disconnected oven from groundstrap as requested, but the oven still appears to be grounded to the strap through its mount to the table, that mount was previously grounded to the strap and it still appears to be unless the oven mount and the waveplate rotator mount are insulated from the table and each other - no insulation is apparent. Notified GONG about this via email and the typical message entry on the Sparc in the shelter. MKIV COMMENT: Tue Aug 5 19:44:54 GMT 2003 Pausing due to clouds. Tue Aug 5 19:58:46 GMT 2003 CHIP End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Tue Aug 5 19:58:46 GMT 2003 Clouds are thick and getting dark and close to ground, paused instruments and closed domes. Tue Aug 5 19:59:30 GMT 2003 PICS End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Aug 6 01:29:14 GMT 2003 Still have thick fog with a little rain. PSPT COMMENT: Wed Aug 6 01:29:31 GMT 2003 Checked around for info on ND filter values, couldn't find anything. GONG COMMENT: Wed Aug 6 01:30:15 GMT 2003 The optical table is isolated from the oven due to thick anodizing on the mounts and table, kind of amazing that the bolts don't ground at the threads but maybe the table isn't made with conductive material.
