The AGC also has variations. I will fax you a plot of the AGC. There is nothing in the SOE that would indicate amplitude variations. Also, I collected an hour of data for the last measurement at DSS 63. This is for USO stability. We have DSS 14 later today, and I will collect a similar amount of data. -Trish -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From trish@rodan.jpl.nasa.gov Mon Aug 2 15:12:03 1999 Received: from godzilla.jpl.nasa.gov (godzilla.jpl.nasa.gov [137.78.177.120]) by magellan.stanford.edu (8.8.8+Sun/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA05394 for ; Mon, 2 Aug 1999 15:12:03 -0700 (PDT) Received: from rodan.jpl.nasa.gov (rodan.jpl.nasa.gov [137.78.177.110]) by godzilla.jpl.nasa.gov (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA16301 for ; Mon, 2 Aug 1999 15:11:10 -0700 (PDT) Received: from 137.78.177.117 (trish-mac.jpl.nasa.gov [137.78.177.117]) by rodan.jpl.nasa.gov (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id PAA05156 for ; Mon, 2 Aug 1999 15:11:09 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199908022211.PAA05156@rodan.jpl.nasa.gov> Date: 02 Aug 99 15:18:05 -0700 From: Trish Priest Subject: Re: DSS63 Measurements To: "Dick Simpson 723-3525" X-Mailer: QuickMail Pro 1.5.4 (Mac) X-Priority: 3 Reply-To: Trish Priest MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-Ascii" Content-Length: 959 Status: RO Reply to: Re: DSS63 Measurements The fax will be delayed until I can get to the fax machine. Someone is currently in the way. Since mid last week, there is quite a bit more atmosphere that we are seeing due to a parameter change in the mm006 sequence. Today and tomorrow should be about as good as it gets for grazing measurements considering the HGA rewind. -Trish Dick Simpson 723-3525 wrote: > >>Also, I collected an hour of data for the last measurement at DSS 63. >>This is for USO stability.
