   *  Pointing: pointing offset should be <0.02 degree. If more, investigation should be done asap. Start the pointing procedure if time permits (to check pointing in other directions),​ log the offset & inform on-call person. If pointing fit repeatedly doesn'​t converge, dBBC is a likely culprit, especially at Yg.   *  Pointing: pointing offset should be <0.02 degree. If more, investigation should be done asap.

   *  RFI: if autocorrelation amplitudes look strange, it is likely to be caused by RFI, especially in the two last channels in the S band in Hobart. Report it.    *  RFI: if autocorrelation amplitudes look strange, it is likely to be caused by RFI, especially in the two last channels in the S band in Hobart. Report it.

How to get the antenna out of the stow:  
 + 
 +    On the pcfshb VNC session: 
 +        halt 
 +        disk_record=off 
 +        (just to make sure the recorder is stopped) 
 +        antenna=off 
 +        (should turn the drives off, check HMI on timehb) 
 +        terminate 
 +        (This will exit the field system software) 
 +    Then re-start the field system in a terminal with fs. Then in eRemoteCtrl:​ 
 +        proc=r1653hb 
 +        setupsx 
 +        antenna=open 
 +        antenna=operate 
 +        (check HMI and see if drives power up) 
 +        schedule=r1653hb 
 +        (schedule should start. Wait for next source command and see if antenna slews) 
 + 
 +One may also need to open VNC session on timepc and manually switch drived off and on in HMI.
