27-Sep-2005 11:36 iridium call - could not take control - call truncated jw
15:41 set dockserver into direct port mode for Pelagia, recognized ^c, but on subsequent ^c glider rebooted jw
16:00 glider returned, uploaded modified mission ob1v02.mi with longer timeouts for Iridium calls, started downloading .sbd files - 22 files! jw

13:50 Iridium calls performing beautifully. Strange track reversal noted last night between midnight and 4AM local. Additional surface events occuring due to "bad altimeter hits". Enquiring of Webb the meaning of these. jw
14:00 Most recent "yo" data did not contain science sensor data. Only main computer data. Evaluation .dbd files upon retrieval and notify Webb. jw

8:30 Regarding previoius note, we are sampling every 5th yo. It may be that just because it's the first yo after a surfacing, it doesn't necessarily get sampled if it's not #5.  jw
8:30 Overnight, the glider continued west towards the waypoint. Progress was hampered by repeated "bad altimeter hits". In one case, four surfacings occurred in less than two hours. Science data is recording properly. jw

7:45 Another huge reversal in direction last overnight. Over a mile in the wrong direction. Is it shy about coming home? Contacting Webb for analysis jw
11:27 Surface event - 4 hour interval jw
12:00 Downloaded partial of latest dbd file to inspect glider dynamics. Some static roll (7 deg port). Otherwise, fin, batt pos, ballast, heading, etc look good. No evidence of glider misbehaving, but progress very, very slow. If next surfacing is slow again, maybe send it east and observe progress in that directon. jw
16:22 Reached western waypoint at ILM2. Reloaded mission to solve bad altimeter hits and widen watch circle at waypoints to 100m. Added heading to sbd to monitor glider performance. Added water velocity to surface dialog. jw
