observations of HD 37001, OBSID 020, and IC 443, OBSID 760; followed
by a long ACIS-S observation of NGC 1569, OBSID 782.

NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS
Chandra snapshot has not come back up following the power-down
at 60 Garden st. last Friday.

No new quick look images.

Notes from 9am status meeting:
	8 supports over the weekend, 10 dumps, 1 bad dump was repeated
successfully. 2 segments of the APR0900d load are uplinked -- good
until day 104. CAP 591 for ACIS squeegy testing was successfully run
Friday night.
	Continue to get the permanent losses of small amounts (few
hundred minor frames, 1/2 to 4 minutes) of data from Goldstone. Data
from day 097, intervals 00:37 to 07:32, and 08:49 to 15:22 is
currently "missing." Situation is being investigated to see if it can
be recovered.
	APR1600 products being worked, expected out on Tuesday
afternoon.

OFLS 8.1a still needs to be testing by running the DEC1299
load and reviewing (in order to get HRC observations, and check the
new HRC CSD). We also need to perform runs with the new ASC guide star
catalog and verify the output products. All these tasks must be finished before
the third string can be reconfigured to accept the new ONLS 3.7
delivery,  which is incompatible with ONLS 3.6 and OFLS 8 products.
