0246 Filled LN2 cold trap.
0421 Electrical check was fine. Qo/QET return on Dib 2 was a little higher than expected (~ 50 MOhms). Probably not a problem. LED 1 on DIB 3 yielded a conductivity of 2 nS in reverse direction, LED 2 on DIB 3 was conducts in reverse direction, no problems witnessed with LEDs on DIBs 1 & 2.
Sealed IVC. Pumping out now.
2000 Fed Cricket 6 pellets.
2230 Tighten bolts holding bottom IVC flange to main body.
Conduct spray test. Background helium leak level 1.7E-9 mbar l/s. Helium leak rate rises to 2.4E-9 mbar l/s, but increase looks like background: no gross leak.
