Ops Day Shift End

TITLE: 10/31 Day Shift: 1430-2330 UTC (0730-1630 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Corrective Maintenance
INCOMING OPERATOR: Ibrahim
SHIFT SUMMARY: Currently relocking and at DARM_TO_RF. Spent most of the day unlocked, with two locklosses and multiple hours of downtime while trying to figure out the FSS issues. Relocking since that work finished has gone great so far.
A couple minutes after Jenne and Betsy left the PSL laser room(and maybe also antetroom), we did notice the FSS PZT have the huge oscillations for about two minutes(attachment), similar to those we had been seeing on the backup FSS boxes(probably alog to come). Jenne is not sure what that means in the case of this FSS box, but mentioned that it might have been due to turning off the air conditioning or something else related to them being in there.
