OUTGOING OPERATOR: Ryan S

Primary useism: 0.04 μm/s
Secondary useism: 0.60 μm/s
QUICK SUMMARY:
IFO is in LOCKING
Having a lot of issues, starting with a LL due to a failed Cal Sweep. Since then, DAY Ops (Ryan S) has experienced locking issues at ALS, IR, DRMI and TRANSITION_ETMX. Interestingly, despite high microseism, ALS locking doesn't look noisy and IFO seems to lose lock without evidence of high ground motion.
Will continue investigating, troubleshooting and locking.
