Sheila had me look back to all the time that ALIGN_IFO's channel H1:GRD-ALIGN_IFO_STATE_N was in in MICH_DARK_LOCKED [43].
I made a Statecounter query.
python3 statecounter.py -chan "H1:GRD-ALIGN_IFO_STATE_N" -operator "==" -value 43 -trend "m-trend" -gpsstart "1368975600" -gpsstop "1479398400"
Which returned the output.txt file that now contains all the times that H1:GRD-ALIGN_IFO_STATE_N was in Mich_Dark_Locked.
It was then easy to use those GPS times in an ndscope to check out the noise on other channels to compare them to today's Mich_Dark_Locked.
Comparing that to what we can see in May of 2025 the ASC-AS_A_DC_NSUM has larger fluctuations than todays Mich_Dark .
ASC-AS_B is roughly comparable.
BUT H1:ASC-AS_C_NSUM does seem to have less fluctuations a year ago.
