General Issues

• Sound on ops8 still patchy?
  • Maybe volume wheel is playing up - try hitting it

Handover Issues

• aov25:
  • ho: Receiver heating up again - seems to be happening regularly?
    • Ask whoever is out at telescope to cool it down at the end of the day
    • Fix is replacing cold head, but it is a major job - not happening anytime soon
• r1852/aov25/r1851:
  • ke: Difference between Mk5/Fs of 1 second. Happened twice - to sync or not to sync?
    • If detected after start of experiment, leave it (fairly easy to fix by correlator)
    • This is usually caused when ntp time not correct when DIMino started
    • Sometimes out by ~0.4 of a second, stable, but can't fix with fmset (also due to ntp time). A reboot will usually fix it
• r1852:
  • yg: mk5cn not responding, JMc rebooted mk5-2yg
  • yg: ntupdate not correcting offset
• r4851:
  • ke: field system hung after ``disk2file`` command
• r1851:
  • ke: Autocorrelation spectra were weird. DBBC card died, Mick replaced it.
  • ke: mk5ke also died (wouldn't come back after reboot), but started working after Mick tried a different power cable, and swapped back
