              SXT CHIEF OBSERVER'S REPORT AND TABLE PLAN

                 CHIEF OBSERVER'S REPORT for Week 44
                       24-Oct-98 to 1-Nov-98

GENERAL

Yohkoh and SXT have performed well this week. Solar activity was
distinctly low.

SXT TECHNICAL

The re-point of Monday worked fine. The advance preparation of tables
for Wednesday and Thursday worked fine, thanks to the tohbans.

We intend to do a one-day CCD bakeout, this week, Thursday-Friday.
There may be table plan revisions Monday especially because of the
SPARTAN and rocket flights.

                   DRAFT SXT TABLE PLAN, WEEK 45 
                        (2-Nov-98 - 8-Nov-98)


This week starts with SPARTAN observations, which commence shortly
before Pass #1 on Nov. 2, and the SOPHIE rocket flight, scheduled
for 18:20 UT the same day. This is just at orbit sunset for Yohkoh,
but we should have good observations up to a few minutes before.
