20000422 report

Inclinometry - new model installed


SUMMARY
CW Inclinometry was taken during the afternoon of 22 Apr 2000. There are small (1" amplitude) differences since the last run on 31 Jan 2000 .


   Datasets     HST start      mean leg temperatures   Humidity

The difference between these clockwise models is shown below :

  • The differences in the (F1,F2,F3) have rms scatters of (0.37", 0.49", 0.79") cf (0.65", 0.58", 0.50") previously.

  • The new track model was installed at 16:00 HST on 20000422.

  • The symmetry remains good, although the scatter in the TY-vs-RY relationship is as large as it has been in a while : see the plot .
