UT1-UTC -0.16, gps delta and vclock ok. %Raining at MK. 1200 Begin (antennas not pointed). 1341 New operator is Jim Ogle. 1400 SC reports light scattered low clouds. 1401 LA reports clear skies. 1411-1637 %LA formatter data switch module #2 error and FMTR 100 146 sampler 2 clock dropout. 1412-1442 *PT FIFO errors on HC1 and HC2. FMTR 100 30 1503-1523 %PT FIFO errors on HC2, data shouldn't be affected FMTR 100 20 as HC2 isn't used at this data rate. 1519 OV reports clear skies but smoky conditions. 1522 KP reports overcast skies. 1530 %OV techs have put antenna in e-stop to check on the encoder. 1537-1606 %PT FIFO errors on HC2 again.

Downtime Summary: Total downtime : 225 min Percentage downtime of observing: 7.5% Average downtime per hour : 4.5 min Total scheduled observing time (# Antennas): 3010 min (10) Notes: * = Entries where data was affected. % = Entries where data may have been affected. & = Entries where the site tech was called out. WEA = Weather entries. MF# = Maintenance form or major downtime category associated with a problem. %AD = The percentage of an antenna affected by a problem. AMD = Total antenna-minutes downtime for a problem. Tsys = System Temperature (TP/SP x Tcal/2) ACU = Antenna Control Unit FRM = Focus/Rotation Mount RFI = Radio Frequency Interference VME = Site control computer CB = Circuit Breaker vclock = Program that compares site clock time to a standard.
