Solar Activity -------------------------------------------------------- The solar activity was not high but a little bit enhanced than the week_44 owing to a newly appeared active region from the east limb (NOAA7921).

Yohkoh/Asuka/SFU Pass Conflicts at KSC --------------------------------- In W46, 6 KSC passes were lost because of the conflicts with ASCA. There are 2 pass conflicts between Yohkoh and SFU; 15th-pass5 and 17th-pass5. The formar pass was assigned to SFU operation. But it is not decided now if the later pass is used for SFU or not, because it depends on the situation of the SFU orbit which is scheduled to be modified in this week. 6.

Holiday Schedule -------------------------------------------------------- The next holiday will be on Sunday, 19-Nov-95. 8. Hikitsugi Items --------------------------------------------------------- 8.1 Tohbans for Week #46 KSC : M. Mizutani, Y. Hanaoka SSOC : K. Suga, S. Kubo 8.2 STT Timer Setting The next STT Timer should be done on 18-Nov-95 (Sat). 8.3 Offpoint terminator images If terminators appear in the OP generated by running `op_first_guess,' then the OP should be faxed to the SXT_CO (Chief Observer) in D-toh. The SXT_CO will then inform the SSOC tohbans if offpointing will be carried out. If so, the OP will need to be edited appropriately. 8.4 Transmission of OP You dont't need to confirm the transmisison of OP/OG files to KSC on the console on 3rd floor. But when you or KSC Toban find a failure in transmitting them, please note the times when the OP was created and transmitted to KSC and report them to Shuto_san and Kosugi-san. (See w44_95-appendix-A) 8.5 SXT Patrol Image Dumps The command `DP BC "8C 05(Hex)"' should be executed whenever an SXT table upload occurs. This command dumps an SXT patrol image which is needed to check the ARS parameters since the Sun is very quiet. 8.6 Japanese SSOC Houben manual was updated.
