Back to Observing Log

November 27

13:22 UT I thought I would enter some information from the past few days about events that have caused problems with normal observing. On Nov. 24 Gelu reset the ACC without telling anyone, and that caused us to miss the entire day. On Nov. 25 we had a partial day due to several issues. Ant 1 stopped tracking at one point, and then there was a gap due to the tunable LO not tuning (apparently it missed the fseq-on command). It was also extremely windy on this day (winds >50 mph!) so some calibrations were not successful. Then on Nov. 26 (yesterday) we got a partial day because the dpp hung and had to be rebooted. Wind was a problem in the afternoon, also. Finally, today and possibly for the next couple of days a winter snow storm is requiring a cessation of operations. Because this is the start of the Thanksgiving holiday, any problems may not get cleared through the (long) weekend, but we'll do our best.
