Sowinski. UT1-UTC -0.32, gps delta and vclock okay. *HN Recent snow plus there's snow/ice in the dish. 0611 Begin. 0619 HN Snowing. 0650 New operator is Heidi Gerhardt 0812 MK begins 0837-0917 *MK mark5 comm lost 22233 100 40 0845 MK rebooting mark5 and vme to see if that helps 22233 0901 MK mark5 status is alive when pinged but will not 22233 go online. Called site tech and he cannot go up do t dangerous road conditions. I tried the chatterbox and that didn't work. I have to take MK out of the observation. 0917-1401 *MK taken out due to mark5 problem 22233 100 284 1012-1014 *HN EL motor current 27.75 amps, put into standby ACU 100 2 1016-1018 *HN EL motor current 27.75 amps, put into standby ACU 100 2 high currents probably due to snow. 1022-1401 *HN taken out due to high EL motor currents from ACU 100 219 snow build up on the dish. 1058 %SC AZ/EL position error sometimes off by a few 22168 seconds of a dregree. 1320-1322 *PT HC1 FIFO errors backplane 1PPS Marker Detected FMTR 100 2 1334 *SC raining 1353 SC ends 1401 End.
