Video at 80mm full zoom - bore sight 12:06:10
N up Atlantic coast for roll and pitch
Power supply to detector not working - weird oscilloscope equal
practicing line 1S to 1E through PT16 and PAR

Video On:

H @ 8 sec/frame over Wallops (to frame 14) and Paramore Island (to frame 20) 
-  should be ~ 60% overlap (270 knots typically + 0.5 degrees )

485,000		[95091201.idl]		Data On  -	Aspibore - on wall with tissue attenuator
491,000							Barry on D101
495,000							Blocking all
499,000							12:06:10, Barry's head finally blocks 
							just center beam

500,000		[95091202.idl]		Data On  -	Aspibore, 
							Fiber Calibration
							18 degrees C (pre)
504,446		Data Off				19.5 degrees C (post)

***Barry found loose connection on laser box for the 25 pin extended cable makes light flicker on Tec4.  Not good, but laser performance seemed fine during head calibration and fiber calibration

SNAFU BIGTIME!!!

505,000		[95091203.idl]		Data On  -	Aspibore, trying to align the laser 
							(after 30m+ of level)
520,000							Boresight done
522,000							Roll
525,000							Pitch, full out 20 degrees
529,000							Pitch #2, B attenuator in for lower signal
530,766					Data Off

Paramore Video at ( 13:17:50 
(detector fixed - redoing 1S -> 1E through 16T + PAR

531,000		[95091204.idl]		Data On  -	Slick70, C attenuator 20 degrees C on it
							Line 1S: 13:50:09
							PT16: 13:51:20 ( ~  L 30'
							1 - 23 frames (8 sec/frame)
							filter b for trees
							filter c for background e.g. WFF
							PAR: 13:56:32	~  R 20' )
							H @ 8 sec/frame to fr. 28
							Line 1E

*ground is sharp, but good in signal  - looks a little low

***note:	loose connector on:  detector signal out of telescope fix 
		(went to B attenuator)

550,734							Line S, 21 degrees C
557,000							WFF back to C for better ground only signal
585,500							Paramore Island
587,888					Data Off

588,000		[95091205.idl]		Data On  -	Line S @ 14:06:25, 5slick70, 
							B attenuator @ 14:06:51
590,000							Line S, went to C because of SAT
							Back to B - good/better trees (21 degrees C)
599,000							Ross @ ~ 14:07:20, 
							R 100' 280 knots
607,000					Data Off -	Line E @ 14:08:51
