PTCS run for September 28-29

X-band observing.

Start Late because there were problems with the check-out of the KA receiver.
Then there were problems changing to the old version of the Ygor system (7.5)

Still problems with the antenna characterization manager.
The quadrant detector is not working.

Starting with model 4f while Ray tries to get the dynamic corrections going.

17:35  EDT  Scans 1-8 were done with model 4f
17:45  change to model 5c -- Ray has the dynamic corrections running now.

       Using Model 5C, dynamic corrections on, FEM and Zernickes enabled.

18:02  Trying to run a Condon double : '2023+3153', '2020+2942' 

GFM not processing the peak scans.
Grail, Turtle, datacapture being restarted.

18:20 Finally it looks like everything is working again
18:20 Starting with scan number 21 : running DoubleV2.sb
18:25 oops one of the doubles went over the wrap -- we are unwrapping now.
18:36 Starting doubles again with scan number 26.
18:43 winds have died down pretty much now.
18:50 still having problems with gfm not displaying the last scan and not sending the LPCs
18:55 gave up astrid control then took control again -- try DoublesV2 again. -- seems ok so far.
19:17  will run DoublesV2 until 10 pm -- Dave will change to PointingRunV3high
22:20 EDT started PointingRunV3high, scan 218
about 02:00 started PointingRunV3
