Tempoarly added a camera to the kcor foreoptics box to try and watch what happens during the calibration; to see if there is some hint at to the source of the little fringes.

KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Oct 27 22:57:52 GMT 2017
Removed the baffle that covers the calpol when it is out of the beam to see if it was a refelection off the baffle that caused the small fringes. 

The calpol rotator barrel itself is much more refelctive (anodized AL) than the baffle (rough matte black ). So this seems unlikley to help. But there is some hope because the barrel is recessed away from the beam a few mm to a few cm w.r.t the baffle plate.

Kcor is seeing heavy aersosols.  Aersol level may be too high to see ngrf images and/or fringes.
