Activities:

DOY 183 (07/01/2008)  DSS-65 S-Band Demo
A Demo Pass was performed to verify that the new S-band transmitter at
DSS-65.  The demo was unattended and commanding performed by the MOC
automation software (ROBOTT).  Ranging and commanding were successful.

Operations will transition to ROBOTT 1.0.4 on DOY 191 (Wednesday
07/09/2008).  This patch removes the pass number check performed on the DSN
schedule.  DSN no longer uses the pass number and the field may be blank.

There have been no updates on the JPL ISO router problem that resulted in
several lost ACE passes in May (DOY 124-126 and DOY 134).
