Found an AMANDA cable on the floor


By: TeX

This morning was at MAPO looking at the issue
with the supernova Iridium modem, and found an
AMANDA cable on the floor, with its connector
end enmeshed in the wiring of RICE.

This was at the left end of the rack bank
containing racks 11-16(or 15?).

This cable is labeled:
AMANDA-B Hole #13
but also says:
Now 97Tx4

I told one of the science techs to look 
at the RICE wiring, as they have been having
many crashes for the last few days, perhaps
this cable fell from the ceiling and has
disrupted the RICE wiring?

I emailed AMANDA folk about this to see if they
know anything about this cable - such as if it is
actually used!

Do not know when this occurred, I would think I would
have noticed yesterday when working on the UPS issues,
but perhaps not. Definitely was not there last week though.
