The S-Band surface echo is more difficult to discern. The 100 kHz data have been delayed by congestion in the path from DSS 14 to the JPL query server. Anomalies --------- Although S-RCP data were collected on both dates, there was no evidence that the RSR was connected to anything. Only noise was visible in the real- time output, and power levels remained constant regardless of whether the receiver should have been seeing cold sky, an ambient load, or the spacecraft. A spare RSR was substituted, but with no better results. S-RCP signals were seen in the closed loop receiver output. S-LCP appeared to be operating normally with signal and noise levels changing as expected. DR G-109690 was submitted for day 255, and DR G-109692 was submitted for day 256. No S-RCP RSR data were transferred to Stanford.
