WEEKLY MEETING MINUTES Week 27, June 28-July 04, 2004 1. Announcements ---------------- * Please schedule all commanding for this week with the SOCs as NRT is very tight and many activities are already planned. * On Tuesday 29 June, all day, the EOF machines will be down all day for maintenance. To do a health check for your instrument, you may use the POCC terminal in the SOC office, or call the SOC to take some page snapshots and fax them to you. * The transponder swap to put us back on the HGA will be done on Wednesday 30 June during the day pass. * The circuit breaker that caused the power loss in the EOF on Tuesday 25 May will be replaced soon though we do not have a date for it yet. It is up to the teams to decide if they want to power down their systems. 2. Operations Constraints ------------------------- * DSN outlook for next week's commanding: All instrument team commanding needs to be coordinated by the SOCs due to large gaps in DSN contact during the SOHO keyhole. Downlink-only stations on Thursday and Friday. Lots of downlink/uplink station pairs all week.

Observations resume Monday 5 July. MDI: 96-minute magnetograms in VC1 when recorded or downlinked. Full disk magnetograms and dopplergrams when available. Continuous contact preparation will be done on Saturday and continuous contact begins on Sunday. TRACE: Full disk mosaics while EIT is in bakeout, irradiance variations study with La Palma begins Tuesday. On Friday, TRACE will load plans through the following Tuesday. AOB: ---
