Current Issues

• New PCFS at Hobart (thanks Jamie)

• Maser maintenance at both Katherine and Yarragadee currently, hence Brett is not at the Observatory. Warren is at Mt Pleasant Tuesdays to Thursdays and occasionally Mondays.

• CRDS82 - “still getting ve error: ERROR ch -308 ve total power integrator overflow” - what was this and was it fixed Bryn?

• R4734 - Yarragadee: consistent offset between mark 5 and other computers of 0.1 - 0.4 visible in fmset with no sync error, could not be fixed. Caused by power failure affecting GPS receiver (new UPS installed) - had to change to Hobart's. Fixed itself 4+ hours later. Is there any way to fix this other than hope?

• R1735 - A couple of instances where recorder started ~ 7-10 seconds before onsource at both Katherine and Yarragadee.

• High system temperatures - run systemp12 again to make sure it wasn't just one dodgy reading. Monitor make note of how many scans were affected by high tsys values.
