SSOC Tohban Report for Week 28, 1996 (08 July - 14 July 1996) SSOC: Shinji Kubo and Tetsuya Watanabe KSC: Hideaki Tonooka and Masanori Nishio 0. Meeting Attendants (in abc order) ---------------- J.Lemen, D.Alexander, T.Kosugi, A.Sterling, M.Sawa, T.shimizu, T.Yoshida, S.Kubo 1. Solar Activity ---------------- The GOES intensity increased two orders of magnitude during the week. The NOAA 7978 produced an X-class flare, a couple of M flares, and much C-class activity, and is now approaching to the west limb. It was actually "Murphy's law" that Yohkoh could observe a long awaited X flare with the huge occultation disk of the earth. 2.

( retransmitted data : 10 data ) ### The following data is closed. ### (*Please tell us, if it is iconvenient) 174 76 21:26 5% less than expected. 174 76 23:09 60% less than expected. 175 76 00:52 not received. 175 76 20:02 not received. 175 76 21:45 not received. 175 76 23:28 not received. 176 76 22:04 not received. 181 76 21:56 3% less than expected. (8 data) 5. Yohkoh/ASCA Pass Conflicts at KSC ---------------- Three passes in W28 were lost due to conflicts with ASCA. Five passes in W29 are scheduled to be lost for ASCA. 6. Special Operations ---------------- The coordinated observation with the VLA/SOHO proposed by Arnold Benz and Loren Acton took place on 12-July. SXT_co may have comment on this collaboration, perhaps. 7. Holiday Schedule ---------------- The next holiday is Sunday, 21-July (JST), but the satellite will be operated the whole seven days after that. 8. Hikitsugi Items ---------------- 8.1 Tohbans for W29 KSC : Masanori Nishio and Jin Koyama SSOC : Satoshi Morita and Tsuyoshi Yoshida 8.2 STT timer setting The STT timer should be set on 16-July (JST). 8.3 Op_first_guess LOS Medium/High Mode. The op_first_guess fails switching to the medium mode during the KSC passes in the OP plan when there are cancelled passes. Alphonse Sterling sent a note to Jim Lemen about this and the SSOC tohbans suppose Jim is working on this. In the meantime, tohbans should be careful to check the KSC LOS mode in the next day's operations in the OP. 8.4 RASM switched to flare20. The RASM script, krasm, now works on flare20, but not flare11. 8.5 Flare1 printer The new printer next to the flare1 workstation does not accept plain- text file' printing jobs, but works only for PostScript files. Most of printing jobs from flare20 were resumed to work, but it still needs modificarion of scripts. Report to the software managers, if you notice any problem.
