Data Capture:  100%  DOY 334-341 2014

Santiago (Near Earth Network) performed a ranging test for DSCOVR while
ACE was in the low downlink rate.
  12/03/2014  DOY 337  1645-1754z (originally scheduled 1630-1730z)

There is only 30 minute southern hemisphere ranging scheduled between
the maneuver on 12/09/2014 and the maneuver on 12/16/2014.  There had
been 2 southern hemisphere ranging in the prior week and there are 2
southern hemisphere ranging in the following week, so the impact should
be negligible and short-term.
