[evlatests] Antennas 14 & 16 Warm Receivers

[Pat Van Buskirk]

This morning, following a report of no fringes on antenna 14 from last 
night, Charlie Barham discovered that the compressors were not working 
in antennas 14 and 16. The C compressor was down in 16; all three 
compressors were down in 14. All receivers were warm and are now cooling 
down.

We did not receive any alerts and only the 300k for Q band on antenna 14 
is currently in an alert state, even though the 15k and 50k stages are 
above normal temperatures. Rich reset the 300k for Q band a few minutes 
ago, which seemed to force it to an alert state.

Charlie also tells me that we should be monitoring the 15k stage for 
abnormal temperatures, not the 300k stage, since this is ambient 
temperature.

Cheers,
Pat
