Satcom SBU keeps dropping out and coming back on the ground. Not sure if it's due to this air base. Tried a reboot but problem still exists. During flight it stays up. Although, the SDU led went out a few times during flight but it didn't seem to affect anything.
RIC is inop on this flight. Catherine and crew are investigating.
Just after takeoff, PLWC and CDP PLWC reacted. PLWC dropped to zero. May have lost an element.
Forward camera had a hard time coming up just after starting them up. It eventually started working with no explanation. Possible water intrusion to pylon firewire to fiber converter.
Turned off 2DS TX/RX arm heaters per Josh's request from 02:39 to 03:09.
Need to keep consistent temps for ERICA. 68F for mid zone and 72F for aft zone.
2DS H channel very noisy. Built a mask for it and the V channel gets noisy. Take the mask away from the H channel and the V channel stops being noisy. Repeated this three times. Once with auto laser control off. Same result.

Blew out ADIFR and QCR prior to flight.
