PCal team took PS4 to EY again today for the first every April measurement of End Y! Previous Aprils' measurements have apparently all been EndX.
Following T1500062V-18, Nothing really out of the ordinary except I put RX here instead of bolting to the side of the breadboard like I normally do, to see if that has any effect on the load balancing of the RX optical bread board or any impact to the overall measurement during the time when WS was in the RX side.
