- Operator: Eric
- Observers: Todd and Paul in CV
- Conditions: 14C, 922mBar, wind=0.3, 1.3, 0.8 m/s
- Goal: half-power tracks at Ku band in windy conditions. If wind does not comply, then use HalfPowerTrajectory to induce feed arm ringing every 2 minutes.
00:05 EDT Noticed that QD channel 3 is reading zero all the time. Since June 16 at ~9AM EDT. Eric restarted the manager, but that did not help. Actually, all four of the channels are reading a few milliVolts, whereas they should read a few hundred milliVolts.
00:25 Point1751 looks good
00:34 HalfPowerTrajectory on 1751+0939
00:57 HalfPowerElTrajectory -- fits file had wrong checksum, turns out it was an integer division problem in the generator
01:19 HalfPowerElTrajectory -- with proper file
01:23 background power has shot up. Now 3x what it was when we started.
01:32 operator reports light rain.
01:40 finished. Turning over to the operator for the balance of the shift.
