The tension of the 6 1/4-20 bolts that sandwich the O1 mount against the o-ring was checked. Going for the spec of "just tight enough that the glass can almost flop around the in the mount"; I found the bolts to be in spec or maybe slightlly to tight. Bolts where re-tighned to by what I can achive via a screw drive driven between my thumb and index finger (slighthly looser than they started). The 3 bolts that secure the mount retaining tabs were also tightend to the same spec. ___end___ Fri Mar 22 21:25:51 GMT 2019 SGS Alignment complete Fri Mar 22 21:27:53 GMT 2019 Kcor Focus/alignment program exited Fri Mar 22 21:42:34 GMT 2019 KCOR End Patrol Fri Mar 22 21:50:48 GMT 2019 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Mar 22 21:52:56 GMT 2019 Starting a streaming data vs hepa filter vibration test.
