After the Initial Alignment, it took about 60-90min of attempts with H1 falling out at various points (as noted in newsreel posts earlier). Finally made it on this current attempt. No real issues, other than needing to engage the ISS 2nd ISS Loop by hand (per Kiwamu's alog 22449). So, the latter causes the range to look low (~30Mpc a few minutes) while engaging 2nd Loop. I actually took a little time here to read the alog, and put the output channel on a striptool, so I would have a better idea of when to turn ON the 2nd Loop.
range is has been hovering at a shy 80Mpc. NO SDF diffs
Observatory Mode is now: COMMISSIONING (this is due to Robert beginning chamber-shaking injections; he said on the order of ~1hr.)
Off to make supper.
