L1004102:25:31UPS!! I'd better note this. I was in the sodium room for a few45670EG
minutes about 5-10 minutes ago. I noticed now that on the
display the sodium density had taken a dip while I was there
Probably because of convergece change while I was there!
L1004104:00:40Noticed a grdual decline in the sodium ratio, Checked the47720EG
wavemeter and it was showing 589.155nm. tuned to .158nm4772
