Content: | ******************************************************************************** SLR Electronic Mail 2011-09-15 07:15:05 UTC Message No. 2019 ******************************************************************************** Author: Christopher Moore Until last week, the laser system at STL3 produced a train of pre-pulses th= at caused tram-tracks in the received data. Tram tracks associated with the= pre-pulses were filtered during the post-processing stage ( using largely = automated facilities ). However this had led to some issues of signal ambig= uity and hence data corruption particularly when strong signals were receiv= ed. To eliminate the pre-pulses, a new Pockels cell has been installed, and= as of the 13th September 2011, data from Mt Stromlo should be free of this= data corruption problem.
