It looks like the ADC121 (Pitch Amp) was driving poorly (Roll Amp too probably) due to bad electronics, and maybe the high winds would push the guiding unstable due to the extra driving force. Time will tell. ___end___ Tue Mar 20 20:33:05 GMT 2012 COMP End Patrol Tue Mar 20 20:33:08 GMT 2012 COMP Start Patrol Tue Mar 20 20:35:14 GMT 2012 COMP End Patrol NOTE BY DARRYL: Tue Mar 20 20:40:27 GMT 2012 Adjusted the dome slot. ___end___ Tue Mar 20 20:41:01 GMT 2012 COMP Start Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Tue Mar 20 22:37:34 GMT 2012 Low clouds passing over. ___end___ Tue Mar 20 22:39:27 GMT 2012: PSPT Abort Patrol Tue Mar 20 22:40:13 GMT 2012 CHIP End Patrol Tue Mar 20 22:40:05 GMT 2012 COMP End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Tue Mar 20 22:40:02 GMT 2012 Clouds are thick, pausing instruments and closing domes to be safe. ___end___ Tue Mar 20 22:41:53 GMT 2012 MKIV End Patrol Tue Mar 20 22:41:37 GMT 2012 H-ALPHA End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Mar 21 00:29:48 GMT 2012 Foggy. ___end___ NOTE BY DARRYL: Wed Mar 21 00:29:57 GMT 2012 NOAA installed a media converter between unused FO cables and our network that will allow the "Exploratorium" folks to broadcast a webcast through our data network during the Venus Transit on 6/5. We just need to connect the dangling yellow cable near our network switch to complete the connection. I've sent out an email to give and receive information about this connection and how it will affect our network traffic. NOAA says Russ Schnell asked permission from HAO, this is the first I've heard about it other than a few emails mentioning a possible webcast that didn't mention the use of our network, we need to proceed carefully so we don't lose or delay good MLSO and GONG data while trying to support this webcast during this special event. ___end___ Wed Mar 21 01:16:07 GMT 2012 MkIV 17_36.rawmk4 18_46.rawmk4 19_49.rawmk4 20_48.rawmk4 21_54.rawmk4 17_39.rawmk4 18_52.rawmk4 19_52.rawmk4 20_54.rawmk4 21_57.rawmk4 17_42.rawmk4 18_56.rawmk4 19_55.rawmk4 20_57.rawmk4 22_00.rawmk4 17_45.rawmk4 18_59.rawmk4 19_58.rawmk4 21_00.rawmk4 22_03.rawmk4 17_52.rawmk4 19_02.rawmk4 20_01.rawmk4 21_03.rawmk4 22_06.rawmk4 17_59.rawmk4 19_05.rawmk4 20_04.rawmk4 21_06.rawmk4 22_09.rawmk4 18_05.rawmk4 19_08.rawmk4 20_07.rawmk4 21_09.rawmk4 22_12.rawmk4 18_08.rawmk4 19_11.rawmk4 20_10.rawmk4 21_12.rawmk4 22_15.rawmk4 18_11.rawmk4 19_14.rawmk4 20_13.rawmk4 21_15.rawmk4 22_18.rawmk4 18_14.rawmk4 19_17.rawmk4 20_15.rawmk4 21_18.rawmk4 22_21.rawmk4 18_17.rawmk4 19_20.rawmk4 20_18.rawmk4 21_21.rawmk4 22_23.rawmk4 18_20.rawmk4 19_23.rawmk4 20_21.rawmk4 21_24.rawmk4 22_26.rawmk4 18_23.rawmk4 19_26.rawmk4 20_24.rawmk4 21_27.rawmk4 22_29.rawmk4 18_26.rawmk4 19_28.rawmk4 20_27.rawmk4 21_30.rawmk4 22_32.rawmk4 18_29.rawmk4 19_31.rawmk4 20_30.rawmk4 21_33.rawmk4 22_35.rawmk4 18_32.rawmk4 19_34.rawmk4 20_33.rawmk4 21_36.rawmk4 22_38.rawmk4 18_35.rawmk4 19_37.rawmk4 20_36.rawmk4 21_39.rawmk4 c17_48.rawmk4 18_38.rawmk4 19_40.rawmk4 20_39.rawmk4 21_44.rawmk4 c17_56.rawmk4 18_41.rawmk4 19_43.rawmk4 20_42.rawmk4 21_48.rawmk4 c18_02.rawmk4 18_44.rawmk4 19_46.rawmk4 20_45.rawmk4 21_51.rawmk4
