Table 2: JCMT fault statistics. Wherever possible the faults are categorised into
ANT = antenna; INS = instrument; COMP = computer hardware; SOFT = software; CAR = carousel; with
the remainder going to OTH = other. The figures in the table may not appear to add up correctly
due to rounding in the original program. P defines the time lost from Primary projects.
The category B(hrs) is the time lost to Backup projects.
