1015 Fed Cricket 3 pellets.
1030 Filled LN2 cold trap.
1650 Tuned DCRC 32. Channel C still exhibits need for high QET bias. Zapping seemed to work this time. For future reference, be sure to zero all biases on all channels before zapping all squids. Not sure if this was an issue, but it's a good precaution. Board 31 is having an error in the zapping process. Jianjie is currently investigating.
Table 1: DIB 1, DCRC 33
Phonon Channel SQUID Bias (micro A) Lockpoint (mV) Modulation Depth (mV) QET Bias (uA) Inverting or Not? Comment
A 99.6 5.25 5.8 -107 NI
B 93 1.50 5.33 -73 NI
C 96 6.36 5.50 -73 I
D 95 5.20 5.36 -50 NI Noisy channel

1711 Filled LN2 cold trap.
1740 Fed Cricket 4 pellets.
1904 Start flashing detector.
DCRC 31 has 3 out of 4 channels tuned. Channel B is still slightly problematic. Will try again in the morning.
