Handover notes
Please use this page to write up any notes on anything that needs to be passed on to the next observer or should go into the end of experiment message.
Notes should be placed below the horizontal line as a new blog entry.
Continuing problems should be copied to the Current Issues page.
**Template for Handover notes:**
Be sure to add any specific notes about the experiment if required, for example “Special back end configuration for x reason”. Put as much detail as you can - the more the better.

Format for entering a comment It is important to stick to this formula - there is a good reason we need this information, so please include it!
Time stamp in UT * Comment * (Your Name)
For Example:
20:00UT: Wind stows, Missed scans 012-3456 to 012-3457 (Jim)
20:50UT: Mark5 lost connection, had to restart Mark5 and reconfigure DBBC, called Jamie on call to fix, missed scans 012-3456 to 012-4567 (Jim)
Again - as much detail as you can. It is important to remember that these notes will be sent to the correlator, so please make sure they make sense to others.

- 19:39UT: Every now and then the humidity sensor at yg returns either a '0' or '65'. The humidity according to different sources should be 100% and that is what the sensor is returning most of the time. (Arwin)

Disk module MED-0020/, start position 0.00 GBs
- Experiment started okay (Lucas)

Disk module NYAL-019/, start position 0.00 GBs
Antenna locked up after pointing check in stow position. None of the 'usual' fixes would resolve the issue so I called up yarragadee personal to reset the antenna manually. This apparently didn't work either. Peter and Dave unplugged and reset it but could not get it to respond which is out of the ordinary. Usually a hard manual reset resolves most problems. (17:55 UT)
- Randal fixed the problem this morning at 00:22 UT, both e-stops were left pushed in until now and whatever the problem was initially appears to have disappeared (Lucas)
- First scan 213-0026c at 213/00:26:00 UT
