     Channelized engineering data volume is down for the second day in a
row -- about 42 MB as opposed to as much as 192 MB on some previous days.
The query2plot utility is also reporting many errors during extraction of
our parameters.  We are investigating.

  USO Temperature and USO Oven Regulator Voltage Are Up
  -----------------------------------------------------

     USO temperature reached some of its highest values on DOY 330 --
almost 26C near 16:00 UTC -- before dropping to 21C over the next two
hours.  Oscillations of a couple degrees C with a period about 100 min
characterize the times before 16:00 and after 18:00.  We saw the same
pattern in USO temperature on DOY 329, but the extreme values were less.
On DOY 328 and earlier there were no drops at 16:00.

     Average USO Oven Voltage has risen by about 0.02 to 2.62 over the past
two days.  The range of values has dropped, however, from +/- 0.04 to
+/-0.02.

     USO Regulator Voltage is essentially unchanged since we started
receiving engineering data.
