Progress of Sorts
It is a struggle but I am slowly getting systems running. tom1 and tom2
are running but not very well. I have been struggling with the focus.
Today is exercise the focus motors day. Sigh, when I look at them they
seem to be working perfectly, yet the focus wanders about a lot. I think
it is not thermal but real problems with the focus. I think it is time to
put a dial indicator on the focus position and see what it really does.
I like to keep everyone informed. Good data is coming, I just have to get
everything working smoothly. For the engineering run I ran to see what a
bunch of data would look like. Now I know I want what these telescopes
can produce so it is time to polish them up to be their best.
