Our new parts have arrived!!!!!!! We now have all of our telescope parts working other than the DOS computer (jack still has it). Other than getting the DOS compute back we need another com port on the PC because the new back end uses one to interface with the computer. Once we get the com port card and computer back we can do one final test before we take it up on the roof. Also at the last meeting we got the noise source working AKA the calibration source. now once we get everything up on the roof and hooked up we will have a calibration source and a entirely working telescope! if we can figure everything out we will be able to control the whole telescope even the cal source from the control room.
Also the Christmas party will be at my (Bartos') house this year on Saturday December 20th 2008!! Next week is the sign up for bringing food to the party so don't miss the meeting next Thursday!
