Bartel Project type: VLBA Obs filename: bb168hcrd.* Date/Day: 2004FEB02/033 Ants Scheduled: SC HN NL FD LA PT KP OV BR MK =UT-Time===Comment===============================================MF#===%AD==AMD= Operator is Jim Ogle. VCLOCK and gps delta check okay. %High wind gusts at MK. 0924 Begin at all sites except MK, which starts later. 0924-0928 *BR EL brake fault, antenna not tracking properly. ACU 100 4 Temporarily disabled EL axis to clear error then re-enabled axis to resume pointing. 0927-1800 *NL wea: snow / freezing rain resulting in high WEA system temperatures. TSMPLOTs look rather bad. 1010 %Netmon software on jansky has hung. Killing proecess, will restart software. No monitor data will be received during this period. 1018 Netmon restarted, monitor data flowing again. 1117 Begin at MK. 1150 %SC reports overcast skies, low clouds. 1408 *NL reports ice on antenna, snowing. 1430 New operator: T.

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.
