TITLE: 05/14 Day Shift: 1430-2330 UTC (0730-1630 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Calibration
INCOMING OPERATOR: TJ
SHIFT SUMMARY:

A light Mainteance day made for a nice & fairly quick return to observing (but our low range of 150Mpc continues---Sheila has a new tool to check on low range in this wiki LINK).

X-arm for ALS had low powers (0.65) after an alignment (which is low), but we made all the way back to NLN.  (this was observed last night by Oli & Ibrahim, btw)
