Testing my connection from OSU.... Sep 15 13:08:21 hi Cindy - Looks like your connection is working. Sep 15 13:13:03 Good--this will be fun to see how it works while Dave is running the CVI. Sep 15 13:19:59 Dave hasn't checked in yet, Cindy Sep 15 13:21:06 The satcom link on the plane hasn't been turned on. Sep 15 13:24:24 I don't suppose there's any way to get our machines to beep when a new chat message comes in, is there? That would be nice so we can work on other stuff up front. Sep 15 13:24:46 --> clyde-c130 (~ads@ras19.ucar.edu) has joined #IDEAS3 Sep 15 13:28:09 Cindy, No beep available; sorry.

Sep 15 13:45:23 Janet, Got it! Sep 15 13:49:23 --> rashaw (~8ddb9b42@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #IDEAS3 Sep 15 13:51:10 doing remote sensing leg at 11.5 kfeet, in upper boundary layer Sep 15 13:51:52 --> John (~Jcowan@dyn84-150.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #IDEAS3 Sep 15 13:52:19 --- John is now known as Cowan Sep 15 14:01:57 <-- logger has quit (Leaving) Sep 15 14:02:38 --> jpfugal-c130 (~jpfugal@ras19.ucar.edu) has joined #IDEAS3 Sep 15 14:02:51 Hi Dr. Shaw, Welcome to chat. Sep 15 14:02:58 Did you get our voice messages? Sep 15 14:03:38 --> jbj (~80755411@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #IDEAS3 Sep 15 14:06:47 Hey Ron, if you have a minute could you call Dr. Raymond Shaw (906-487-1961 or 906-487-1642) and get him to check his chat window? Sep 15 14:10:30 Hey could someone type something on chat as evidence that I'm connected? Sep 15 14:12:53 Jacob, I can see you on the ground here. Sep 15 14:12:56 Jacob, I just got Dr. Shaw's voice mail and left a message to rejoin the chat Sep 15 14:14:32 Hi Jeff, when you are half a hour from jeffco, can you let me know, and I will make sure that Linnea will be here on arrival? Sep 15 14:15:51 Jacob, No answer on the second number you gave me Sep 15 14:18:39 jbj, OK Sep 15 14:18:56 top of the BL today is at 14 kfeet Sep 15 14:22:04 Ron,Thanks for trying to connect Dr.Shaw Sep 15 14:33:28 jbj we are about 20 to 30 minutes from landing Sep 15 14:34:40 Jeff-why landing so early? Are the CVI and TDMA working OK? CT Sep 15 14:35:15 Jeff, Thanks. I'll call Linnea. Sep 15 14:35:19 nick /daveR-c130 Sep 15 14:35:38 Jacob..... sorry for the delay..... I'm back on chat now. Did you catch any clouds on this flight? Sep 15 14:36:12 Cindy- CVI seems ok. I'm running in TOTAL mode, since there are no clouds. Sep 15 14:36:29 <-- jbj has quit (CGI:IRC) Sep 15 14:36:30 Well, almost no clouds -- a few little puffs over the divide. Sep 15 14:36:52 OK, good, thanks. Sep 15 14:36:56 Raymond did you check your voicemail? Sep 15 14:37:47 No.... I'm doing that right now.... Sep 15 14:38:04 We see no clouds but the good think that the camera is stable and restarting after 10 seconds timeout Sep 15 14:38:07 rhtdma seems to be healthy. Roberto is pleased and taking lots of notes. Sep 15 14:38:34 Neither DeMott nor Roberto are taking CVI air feed -- no reason to. Sep 15 14:41:02 hi cindy, there are no clouds to speak of so we will quit a little early Sep 15 14:41:21 Hey Raymond do you understand about the camera timeout? Sep 15 14:42:42 Dave R, good idea to put the CVI back in regular mode a few min before landing to flush out any junk. Sep 15 14:42:59 Jacob.... no, but you can explain on return if it's too much to do over chat. Sep 15 14:45:23 I fixed the camera software so when the camera freezes it'll time itself out after 10 to 11 seconds and resume on its own. Sep 15 14:46:37 nice.... and it still can be restarted manually? Sep 15 14:49:51 Yes it can. We don't change speeds. Now we stop and start the grabbing a couple times. Sep 15 14:50:42 Once in a while, though, the program freezes and requires manual restarting. Sometimes when we manually restart it crahses. Sep 15 14:51:05 The circuit Alex built yesterday and today is working perfect. No two laser pulses in the same frame and no blank frames. Sep 15 14:51:15 This wihtout the ICs I ordered on Saturday. Sep 15 14:52:08 great news on the circuit..... the software bug is still really frustrating, but the "freeze ups" only seem to occurr rarely, correct? Sep 15 14:52:49 What about condensation..... were you able to keep the windows clear on this flight? Sep 15 14:52:50 No they are rather frequent now. Sep 15 14:53:25 There is no moisture to condense. Outside temp is 13 and dewpoint is -11. Sep 15 14:53:57 did Sasha make today's flight? Sep 15 14:54:33 Yeah, he's done some of this chat too. Sep 15 14:55:00 The freezeups are still random, sometimes 5 minutes, sometimes 10 seconds. Sep 15 14:55:48 Let's send sample code to Point Grey Research for their opinion...... I'm signing off now...... happy flying..... Sep 15 14:56:13 <-- rashaw (~8ddb9b42@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has left #IDEAS3 Sep 15 15:00:51 <-- jpfugal-c130 has quit (Leaving) Sep 15 15:01:40 Cindy- ok. I'll switch it over soon. btw, when CVI is in TOTAL mode, does changing cvf3cw have any effect? (none I can see here) Sep 15 15:06:43 ATIS KBJC 152045Z 28010KT 70SM FEW150 29/M05 A3008 Sep 15 15:07:27 Right, shouldn't have any effect as TOTAL forces N2 supply air to 0; cvf3 is just the sum of all the sample flows. If you want to see effect of progressively diluting sample, leave in CVI mode and decrease cvf3 to various negative values...
