The crew had to cope with problems with the a.c. (BKV-3) and a cooling loop. The Elektron oxygen generator in the Kv ant-1 module could not be used continuously due to a power supply problem. The crew accomplished the repair of the B MP (trace contaminants removal unit). The crew asked TsUP to reduce the number of communication sessions via VHF channels, for instance those via the tracki ngstations in the USA. They regularly had to interrupt their activities in other modules and had to go to the Central P ost. They preferred to have not more than 1 session every 3 hours. The head of TsUP, Solovyov, who was about to go on lea ve, had another opinion. Possibly there is a compromise: the facilities in the USA (Wallops, Whtie Sands and Dryden) might mainly be used by Andy Thomas. During a lot of long TV-sessions via Altair-2 much attention was dedicated to the 2nd anniversary of the permanent pres ence of an American astronaut on board MIR. There also was a session with Spain in which the crew congratulated BMW. M usabayev said that he would be very pleased to take a seat behind the steering wheel of one of their new models. There have been a lot of extensive medical checks, for instance E.C.G.-s during physical exercises. Musabayev told Ts UP where he and Budarin use to sleep: Budarin near the porthole at the end of module Priroda, which also was the sleep ing place of Vinogradov. M. himself sleeps in his cabin in the Base Block, but when it is too hot over there he moves t o the SO (docking compartment) of module Kristall. Musabayev now and then presses TsUP to review the work planning. In a conversation with TsUP Budarin said the the co mplex is used below its value. This is irritating for the crew: things have not been completed in time. Forthcoming spacewalks (EVA's): The first EVA will take place on 1.04.1998 between 1320 and 1910UTC. To be sure that the hatch can be opened without p roblems Musabayev and Budarin will have to accomplish repairworks on the locks of the hatch. If all went according to p lan they did this today (Friday, 27.03.1998). The 2nd and 3rd EVA are provisionally planned for 6 and 11.04.1998. Some remarks: 1. The present bad health of my wife might have a negative effect on my monitoring and reporting of MIR-operations in the near future. 2. A number of my E-mail relations still use my old E-mail address. Thusfar E-mails with the old address seem to reach me, but this will not last for ever. So please, if you still use that old address correct this in: cmvdberg@wxs.nl Chris van den Berg, NL-9165/A-UK3202 --- Maximus 2.01 * Origin: Scoop BBS (The Netherlands) +31-33-2996366 (2:500/202) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 140 SHORT WAVE Ref: F4200003 Date: 03/31/98 From: MICHAEL LOVELL Time: 01:43am \/To: ALL (Read 0 times) Subj: Dx 300 ? Does anyone know which year Passport to World Band Radio reviewed the Radio Shack DX 300 model from years ago. Its a digital 0-30 unit and works Okay I guess using 100 feet long wire.
