These homedopot ones are not so good, but I installed one of the remaining spares since it seems better to have all the rollers in even if they quickly fail. Other replacment rollers should have arrived today, but it looks like they are currently still in Honolulu so will either arrive tommorrow or Monday. Either case by Wednesday we should be able to treplace the roller with something better. ___end___ GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Feb 20 21:06:10 GMT 2015 Realigned sgs ___end___ Fri Feb 20 21:07:42 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Fri Feb 20 21:07:45 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Fri Feb 20 21:07:46 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Calibration script: c:\kcor\mlso-calibration22deg.ini Fri Feb 20 21:23:21 GMT 2015 KCOR End Calibration Script Fri Feb 20 21:23:38 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Fri Feb 20 21:23:39 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Feb 20 22:21:28 GMT 2015 Winds jumping up to 25mph (with higher gusts) from the west. ___end___ PSPT COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Feb 20 22:33:50 GMT 2015 Pspt crashed due to an idl error ___end___ Fri Feb 20 23:40:24 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Fri Feb 20 23:40:53 GMT 2015 COMP End Patrol GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Feb 20 23:41:39 GMT 2015 Wind just jumped up to 35 and starting beating on the dome. idleing insturments shutting domes. ___end___
