Looks like it is back now. Wind currently about 30mph from the west so we weren't seeing much impact on the spar. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Wed May 13 20:10:43 GMT 2020 ___end___ GPS COMMENT by MLSO: Wed May 13 21:45:09 GMT 2020 Successfully logged in to system Good disk mount GPS software running Last 5 GPS data files are: /mnt/usb/dataoutiq_2020_129_2146.bin 2147483647 /mnt/usb/dataoutiq_2020_130_2146.bin 2147483647 /mnt/usb/dataoutiq_2020_131_2146.bin 2147483647 /mnt/usb/dataoutiq_2020_132_2146.bin 2147483647 /mnt/usb/dataoutiq_2020_133_2146.bin 2147483647 ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Wed May 13 21:54:53 GMT 2020 PM Blew off Kcor O1 ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Wed May 13 21:54:59 GMT 2020 PM Blew off Kcor Field Lens ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Wed May 13 23:18:57 GMT 2020 PM Washed Kcor Field Lens to try and address the bright artifacts in the south ___end___ Wed May 13 23:20:32 GMT 2020 SGS Alignment complete Wed May 13 23:20:34 GMT 2020 Kcor Focus/alignment program exited KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Wed May 13 23:32:15 GMT 2020 Sky has heavy aerosols so it is hard to see much detail in the nrgf images but it looks like the kcor fieldlens artifacts are gone. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Thu May 14 00:54:35 GMT 2020 PM Blew off Kcor O1 front and back. ___end___ Thu May 14 01:36:52 GMT 2020 SGS Alignment complete Thu May 14 01:36:54 GMT 2020 Kcor Focus/alignment program exited GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Thu May 14 02:26:54 GMT 2020 The ACOS quicklook kcor gifs were not getting generated today. I think I have traced this down to the time on koidak being ~6 minutes slow and the quicklook script doesn't handle files from the "future" well. I think I know how to make the script more robust to handle these files. But we also have an assist ticket into reset the time on kodiak. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: berkey
