The schedule start email claimed everything was fine - but mk5ke was not recording properly. It's unclear why this happened. Several “mk5cn: connection closed” messages appeared, and nothing was being recorded. The EndDIM command had no effect on the dim process. fmset took a few seconds to display values, but eventually did. I decided to reboot the mk5 via the power switch. Waiting for a few minutes and looking on the webcam showed what looked like a frozen state. Tried off, then on, but the mk5 never had lights on the front powered after this. Boot did nothing either. Contacted Jamie, now recording to mk5-2ke (USN-0169, 2TB free). Missed approximately the first hour - first real scan is 1424-418 at 120-1959a. There appears to be bad auto-correlations in DBBC channels 1 and 14, but not restarting DBBC for fear of losing more time. (Chris)
In gap between scans 120-2335 and 120-2346, cycled power to DBBC and reprogrammed it. No scans missed but expect a clock jump. (Jim)
DBBC cont cal wasn't working. Another DBBC reset required. scans 121-0004, 121-0008, 121-0010 missed. Clock jump. (Jim)
Another DBBC restart required, due to large difference between formatter and maser delays. (Jakob)
