For some reason valuges bigger then 360 showed up includeing 691. I think this was related to the homing processes and all data/calibration files have the correct calpol but it was odd to see a value outside the range 0-360. ___end___ Fri Feb 10 20:33:31 GMT 2017 CoMP Restarted from pause Fri Feb 10 20:49:40 GMT 2017 CoMP Paused for clouds Sat Feb 11 01:03:04 GMT 2017 CoMP Restarted from pause Sat Feb 11 01:03:04 GMT 2017 COMP End Patrol GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Feb 11 01:05:03 GMT 2017 Moved the building camera over from its origional enclosure to a a cctv style enclousre that another project up here was surplusing. During the process sd card that runs the camera got corrupted so a bit of time as spend trying to re-remember how to setup the system. Also during the process the window got a bit of a goober on it. I have tried to clean it with some wind but seme to be mostly smeering things around. So at this point I think I will stop and just see if it will get better while drying out over the weekend. Hopefully this new encolsure with its glass window will get rid of the annoying reflections/streaks that followed the sun in the winter months. ___end___ GONG COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Feb 11 02:45:36 GMT 2017 Swapped a hard drive in the gong halpah machine per a request form Tim. ___end___ GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Feb 11 02:46:01 GMT 2017 Very very dry day up here %5 humidty is hard on my eyes. ___end___
