This was caused by a large (S3 class) radiation storm which hit us at about 313:2330

Nov 08, 2000 Shift Report
-------------------------
Solar radiation levels are currently low although there is a slow upward
trend. Kp levels have been varying between 2 and 4 over the last day.
A Full halo CME was reported at about 5am UT this morning; we may 
see its efects later on this week.

Nov 09, 2000 Shift Report
--------------------------
A RADMON trip and SCS 107 execution was noted by the OC's and
confirmed by the FOT last night during the 314:0010 COMM pass.
This was caused by a large (S3 class) radiation storm which
hit us at about 313:2330 or so. EPHIN rates were highly elevated
above the trip levels during the 314:0010 pass and remained
high at the 314:0945 pass. ACE low energy proton rates are high (40,000)
and slowly drifting up.

Radiation telecon:
 * Radiation and particularly EPHIN levels are too high now for a resumption of
   operations with NGC4111 tonight. 
 * Will re-plan for intercepting load at first observation after perigee passage,
   which is B2 2236+35, starting at 315:2359. Load review tonight. 
   Plan to uplink tomorrow during day. 
 * Will have a review telecon to assess radiation situation prior to uplink.
   Details will be published by Dan Shropshire via E-mail. 
 * Real-time cleanup CAPS need to be run:
      - Enable SCS 107
      - Enable HRC SCS's

Nov 10, 2000 Shift Report
-------------------------
We are still in SI-SAFE condition due to RADMON trip yesterday. Radiation levels
still high as we head towards perigee at 315:16:28. 

ACE levels went up at about 315:0600 to a flux of over 700,000 - contaminated
by electrons. As of 315:1500 they had gone down to about 130,000, with a slow
decrease being observed. This is in response to the CME released at 2330 of Nov 8,
which accompanied the solar storm. 

EPHIN rates were still elevated (P4GM > 3000) at 315:0400 pass when we were still
well out of the rad belts. P4GM was still about 3000 during last pass at 315:1300
but we were near the belts. 

Radiation telecon notes:
 * Radiation and particularly EPHIN levels are still too high now for a resumption of
   operations tonight
 * Went over several options for resumption of science observations
 * Decision was to attempt to restart with obsid 17 (AU MIC) but about 2 hours
   earlier than currently planned (brings obs time to full 60KS request).
 * Observation 17 will start about 317:0600 or so (1am Sunday Nov12). 
 * Need to uplink load at 316:0100 pass (Saturday night at 8pm EST)
 * Another telecon scheduled 316:0545 (7:45pm EST Saturday night) to evaluate radiation
 * Dan Shropshire will send out details via E-mail
