MK joins a few minutes later. 0241-0426 %FD Intermittant loss of communications with FD; COMM Not sure how this may affect the observation, though it did cause a delay in pointing the antenna. 0241-0944 %BR 1cm dewar cycling, receiver slightly warm (31.7K) 0357 Readbacks ok. 0421-0425 *FD Rebooting site computer to see if this fixes OTHER 100 4 the intermittant communications problem. 0426 FD Communications problem does not seem related to site computer; going to dialup. 0514 Readbacks ok. 0542 MK writing on Mk5 disk NRAO-108, bank A.
