VERY LONG BASELINE ARRAY OBSERVING LOG -------------------------------------- Project: BC127G Observer: Cawthorne, T.V. Project type: VLBA Obs filename: bc127gcrd.* Date/Day: 2004JAN29/029 Ants Scheduled: SC HN NL FD LA PT KP OV BR MK =UT-Time===Comment===============================================MF#===%AD==AMD= 1739 Begin file VCLOCK check ok. SC at -0.134 UT1-UTC check ok GPS delta < 10 us Operator: T. Perreault 1739 %MK wea: snowing, seeing high system temperatures WEA 1841 %HN wea: wind gusts > 35 mph. 1843 Readback check ok 1926 %MK wea: wind gusts > 35 mph. 2014 Readback check ok 2059-2113 *MK antenna stowed to let site tech check on the VAC 100 14 B rack temperature sensor. There was a temperature spike earlier and while temperatures have dropped they are not back to normal. 2107 MK site tech Tony Sylvester reports that the B rack problem is a false readback due to moisture. There is a small leak in the Vertex room roof that is allowing water to run down into the rack. He reports that the Vertex room itself is nice and cool. 2111 MK wea: site tech reports 3/16" of ice on antenna and its melting fast 2128 Readback check ok 2223-2226 *PT autostowed. Power glitch. Repointed. COM 100 3 2244-2247 *OV rotation drive fault. Cleared error, got on FRM 100 3 position at next scan change. 2245 New operator is Jim Ogle. 2339 End. Downtime Summary: Total downtime : 20 min Percentage downtime of observing: 0.6% Average downtime per hour : 0.3 min Total scheduled observing time (# Antennas): 3600 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.
