SOHO Recovery Updates

29 September 1998

Activities yesterday included a change in the guide star. The one being used now is magnitude 5.7, in slot 1. Also, there were group dumps and configuration monitoring. We had some problems while commanding through DSS27, as only 200 Watts uplink power was available. Uploading of COBS and SSU patches was postponed until today, to use DSS24 instead.

In the morning meeting today there was an overview of the current plans for instrument re-commissioning, with an schedule some 30 working days long.

Next orbital maneuver is scheduled for October 14.
