SSOC TOBAN REPORT FOR WEEK 31
                      (1 August to 8 August 1994)



SSOC: Y. Uchida and T. Magara
KSC:  T. Takahashi and Wakabayashi


1. SOLAR ACTIVITY   ---------------------------------------------

     Solar activity was also low this week. NOAA7761 region was an ephemeral
region and disappeared in a few days. However region NOAA7762, which appeared   
on AUG-3, produced two B2-flares.

2. STANDARD OPERATIONS   ----------------------------------------

2.1 SXT table uploads

2.2 STT timer set 

  The STT timer set was done on 5 August successfully. Canopus observations
have been terminated until next week because of eclipse. A new timer
set should be done as soon as the eclipse period ends.

2.3 BCS STIM CAL

  It was done on 6 August successfully.

3. SPECIAL OPERATIONS   ----------------------------------------

 HIDA Campaign

    A special campaign to search for emerging flux regions organized
by Kurokawa at Hida Observatory continued.  SXT observed a
newly emerging flux region using PFI dominant mode. 


4. ERRORS AND PROBLEMS   ----------------------------------------

4.1 Flare11 Keyboard

    The flare11 keyboard gave us a lot of trouble. The tobans of last week  
swapped it with the keyboard on flare9 but the "return" and "i" keys still
did not work well. Shimizu-san has now swapped out the keyboard with
flare10, moving the problem there until service can be performed.
 

4.2 Printer Trouble in KSC

    As far as we know, there is still a problem with one of the printers
at KSC and daily sun-spot regions should be Faxed to them.  


5. YOHKOH/ASCA PASS CONFLICTS -----------------------

     Two KSC passes were lost on 1 and 2-Aug (both are 5th passes). 
We are going to lose the 5th passes on 11-Aug during Week 32.
     
     The 5th pass on Friday at 03:27-03:38 UT ended slightly early to
allow the 15-minute setup time prior to the start of the ASCA pass.


6. Holiday Schedule ------------------------------

     The next holiday will be on 13 August. T. Kosugi will establish the
future holiday schedule for Yohkoh.


7. HIKITSUGI ITEMS --------------------------------- 

7.1 Tobans for week 32

SSOC: Akita
KSC:  Wakabayashi/Sakao


7.2 STT Timer Set

    The STT timer must be set no later than Friday.

7.3 ASCA/Yohkoh KSC conflict problem

    This problem is to be solved by consulting Nagase-san.

7.4 Yohkoh/ASCA pass conflicts problem

     Jim Lemen's algorithm for avoiding Yohkoh/ASCA pass conflicts was
presented at Yohkoh-ASCA operation adjustment meeting on 5 Aug. It
was attended by H. Hudson, N. Nitta, Y. Uchida, and T. Magara on the
Yohkoh side, and Itoh-san, and Skinner-san from the ASCA side. The
table after eliminating the passes having conflict by Lemen's algolithm
was checked manually for Yohkoh pass, and it was found to be alright.

7.5 Daily sunspot region maps from NOAA

     One of the printers at KSC is not fixed. SSOC toban should send a daily 
NOAA sunspot region map to KSC every morning.  


7.6 New English Manual

    This week's toban noted that one additional statement is needed at page 35
(11.2 Transfering Files via RASM).

    It has been noted by the last week's toban that we should make sure to use 
the check sheet properly.  


PS   There are some mistakes this week's toban made. For example,
 
   1) Misunderstood the pass when SXT table uploads and didn't communicate 
with KSC toban.

   2) Forgot to save the E-mails sent to "yohkoh" in a proper way.
