The affects the ECS connection with the CMS and IRTS. Therefore, remote teams are asked to avoid ftp'ing delayed commands to the ECS between 12 - 14 UT ... as you may encounter problems getting validation reports, etc. * Tomorrow, switch to Submode 6 at 19:00 UT.

D24. Incorrect uplink parameters used. 193/0251 5 Min TM dropout. D45. Antenna stopped tracking. SOLAR STATUS ------------ SOLAR ACTIVITY FORECAST (UPDATED 10 JULY AT 22 UT): SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE LOW TO MODERATE. REGIONS 9070 AND 9077 CONTINUE TO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE AN ISOLATED X-CLASS FLARE.

Today polarity reversal and sunspot studies. Tomorrow, CME watch on West limb. SUMER: Nominal. Observed target for JOP125 until 22:30 yesterday. Since the NE prominence lifted off... switched to another prominence in the south for today and tomorrow. UVCS: Nominal. Continue Lyman-alpha and OVI ratio calibrations Tomorrow, if suitable streamer target they will observe else they will perform synoptic observations. LASCO: Nominal. C2 and C3 synoptics. EIT: Nominal. 195 Angstrom CME watch and synoptics. MDI: Nominal. Full disk magnetograms and dopplergrams. Calibrations later today. TRACE: Nominal. Today, did JOP125 and observed AR 9077 most of the day. Tomorrow, will do JOP125 and then either more active region studies or perhaps begin filament observations.
