[evlatests] Set-and-Remember weakness?

[Rick Perley]

    I asked yesterday whether an antenna, temporarily taken out of 
service for maintenance, should lose its 'set and remember' settings.  
Barry responded:

    The evidence suggests otherwise -- at least at L and S bands. 
    During the 'Flux Redux' run, ea05, 17, and 26 were each taken out of 
service for a short period of time for maintenance.  The operator's log 
states that 17 and 26 were 'stowed', while ea05 was 'parked'.  Upon 
restoration to the array, the switched and total powers at S-band were 
about 7, 12, and 40 times higher than they were before the maintenance.  
(!)  The effect was much less marked at L-band (where one antenna 
actually went down in power).  At all other bands, there were no changes. 

    Something special about S&R at S and L bands?
