==== 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.
==== Report for week of 7/30 ====
 * We set up an OL outside the tank and checked the SR3 pitch - it was OK.
 * We ran power to the SR3 pico and stepper drivers and tested them.
 * We tried to offload a 700 µm discrepancy between the BF GAS zero position and the IM-V zero position but ended up scrambling the IRM-IM alignment, probably through sending a command to the wrong pico driver. We mostly fixed the BF/IRM pitch/roll, but we have some more work to do to fix the IM/RM/TM pitch/roll.
 * We debugged a problem with the SR2 alignment - the chain was offset by about 5 mm to +T, leading to fouling at the IM and RM levels. Some 2 mm of the offset was due to the F0 keystone being off center, apparently due to some combination of different-strength blades and the CuBe auxiliary spring, but the rest is a mystery.
 * We fixed a problem with the levelness of the PI due to the feet of the IP being set at uneven heights into the PI weldment, and it got the IP very closed to centered but it didn't fix the fouling problem.
 * We eventually fixed the fouling by setting the security structure at a slight angle so it remains slightly off at the SF level but is good at the bottom.
 * We installed the SR2 SF damper Cu segments and magnet ring.
 * Enzo and team debugged a malfunctioning bit in the SR3 IP BIO which turned out to be a defective 37-pin gender changer.
