==== Report for week of 6/11 ====
 * Enzo redid the SR3 BIO connections to match the now-working BS setup. He also fixed PR2, which had a similar problem.
 * Enzo replaced LPCDs with HPCDs in the SR3.
 * Hirata-san installed the cable clamps and Cu segments on the SF cap.
 * Hirata-san and Kozu-kun continued tuning the filter in PI #3. Unfortunately it seems to be rather weaker than expected, and we have not found a compression setting that gives a good frequency. We may have to use tricks like reducing the number of Cu segments on the SF (or using Al ones) to save weight.
 * Mark, Enzo and Terrence suspended the BF/... section from the SF, and got it aligned for TFs.
==== Report for week of 7/2 ====
 * We double-checked the bounce frequency and it was indeed around 0.5 Hz with the CuBe auxiliary spring installed.
 * We prepared (but did not yet install) 6 arc weights for tuning the IP.
 * We unlocked the security structure from the assembly frame, and raised the whole system on the top jacks. We then unlocked the IP and adjusted the leveling so the IP was centered. We then had to loosen two of the poles at the top level of the security structure to make it vertical again, because it turns out that the jack receptacles (which also serve as the IP leg bases) are welded at very uneven depths in the bottom surface of the PI, so the IP and the bottom surface can't be level at once.
 * We debugged an issue with the height of the payload. It turns out that due to a buildup of errors (especially an extra 3 mm between the SF and BF), the payload is some 5-6 mm low with the F0 keystone at CAD height. Since the frequency is roughly independent of height around 0.5 Hz, we decided to go with a higher F0 keystone.
 * Enzo and Eleonora routed all the SF/... cables up to the PI.
 * We found we needed 4.7 kg of extra mass to get the desired keystone height, so we decided to put the third Cu segment (3.3 kg) back on, purely as ballast.
 * We put some extra small masses on the SF cap to level it. The suspension is now fully ballasted and trimmed except for 1 Promec mass (455 g) standing in for the new PI yaw stepper motor assembly (estimated 330 g) which is yet to arrive.
 * We took all the SR sat amps back to Mozumi to get new capacitors installed, and grabbed three spares for use while that is being done.
 * We investigated and documented Tanaka-san's watchdog for the BS, to see if the BIO Converter chassis that it uses could also drive reset lines for stepper motor driver boxes.
 * Hirata-san and Terrence characterized the last 4 F0 blades.
 * Hirata-san and Terrence installed blades in the top filter for SR2 and tuned it to 0.5 Hz (with the CuBe auxiliary spring) over three rounds of compression.
