Picking up where I left off on Friday, aiming towards getting TFs.

Done for the day. Had chronic problems trying to get TF scripts to run, so reverted to a free-swing test to at least get the mode frequencies. Most of the LF modes seem to be where they're supposed to be but there's a huge anomalous peak at 11 Hz in all DOFs but especially V and R.

I went in to diagnose what might be causing the anomalous 11Hz peak and found that the Top Stage blade EQ stop (aka the goalpost) was locking the right side blade down.  I released this, then made a few small adjustments to correct for the now fully suspended chain/BOSEM alignment.
