Frustration!

[Tom Droege <tdroege@veriomail.com>]

MIKE is out on the balcony and I am trying to do a focus run.  The motor 
drives just slowly died.  This keeps me from doing a focus.  It is just too 
messy to move all those wires in the dark to try to fix it at 0400 
UT.  Sigh!  Tomorrow I will find something really dumb.  Most likely a bad 
connector pin.  That is life.  That is why I want to run each system a 
while before I ship it out.  It reduces the number of dumb things.  I 
remember our Bendix G-15.  We ran it about a year with intermittent funny 
troubles.  One day we discovered under all that wiring a whole area that 
had never been soldered!   You would think it would have made a big 
difference.  Not much.  You all should be delighted that you don't have to 
work with vacuum tube systems.

So it is cover up and go to bed time.  Sigh!
