No known problems.
Torun (K. Borkowski at Sat Jun 6 14:09:12 METDST 1998) Failure
The recorder is still unusable. The problem has
been traced to the headstack movement mechanism.

The operator reports a problem of the time of the FS at 19:33 that caused the lost of scan from 19:34 to 19:40; scan 19:42-19:55 probabily lost.

Head position did not move between scans 1 to 4, okay from
scan 5 (restarted schedule at 13:06 UT). Problem with IFD
procedure - may be set to nor,nor instead of nor,alt for
some periods prior to fix at about 16:30 UT. Strong RFI at
1673 and 1646 MHz, VC9 very bad.
