We plan on disassembling Spicam on Friday 2-16-01 . The dewar will then be shipped to UW for some rework. It is planned that the instrument will be reassembled on 2-28-01 and operable for 3-1-01. The plan is to swap the Cryotiger cold head, adjust the cold strap, and replace the entrance window. We expect this will cure the recent chip condensation problems. -- Mark Klaene Observatory Engineer, Deputy Site Manager voice: 505 437 6822 Apache Point Observatory fax: 505 434 5555 PO box 59 2001 Apache Point Rd Sunspot NM 88349 APO APO APO APO APO Apache Point Observatory 3.5m APO APO APO APO APO This is message 491 in the apo35-general archive.
