KEYHOLE OPERATIONS:
-------------------
SOHO keyhole #10 telemetry period: Aug 31-Sep 28, 2005.

EIT will go to CCD bakeout between Sep 2 23:00 UT - Sept 23 10:00 UT 
with its mini-cal pre and post sets as folows:
2005/09/02 19:00:00 - 2005/09/03 01:00:00
2005/09/23 20:00:00 - 2005/09/24 00:20:00

During the Telemetry Keyhole LASCO will be in improved synoptic cadence 
of C2 at 12 mins cadence and C3 at 30 mins cadence, including daily 
orange/blue filter fielding images.

The SOHO rolled back to 0 deg on Thursday Sept 8, 2005. LASCO was safe for 
the S/C roll (also Station Keeping -SK- and Momentum Management -MM-) between
Wed Sept 7 at 11:00 UT - Friday Sept 9 at 12:00 UT.
