SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes for Friday, 12 December 2003 ANNOUNCEMENTS ------------- * The current RHESSI default target is AR10517. When selecting this target to maximize coordination w/others, use campaign number 6850. * Thursday afternoon we did another single winding test after 10 days of dual winding exercises. The test was not successful - there was no movement at all in single winding mode. At this time we don't foresee any further dual winding exercises. * UVCS star observations continue today * EIT Shutterless on Sunday morning. A student ECS operator will be in the office until noon on Sunday instead of the usual hours. * Sunday 14 December from 8am-9am local time, all Goddard Connect dial up services will be unavailable due to hardware upgrades. * SOHO Holiday Party will be on Monday, December 15 in the Bldg 3 conference room at 11:30am. There is a sign-up sheet in the EOF and FOT offices.
