Bad (oscillating?) tiles in HBA 5 mode on startup in local mode:
RCUs 18,19,34 are very bad
RCUs 50,51,52 are modestly bad (high ringing around line at 161 MHz)
Tiles 9,17 are very bad
Tiles 25, 26 are modestly bad
These tiles are neighbors. See

Problem with 160 MHz mode
When trying to do calibration observations in rcumode 6, the RSPDriver kept failing when setting the station clock to 160 MHz. From looking at the logfiles of the RSPDriver it seems to be a problem with the Clock- (TDS-) boards. When taking subrack 5 (in which the TDS board was replaced in March) out of the station config, then the system could be set to the 160 MHz mode.
Monitoring software installed
The iStnMonitor software has been installed. The plots can be viewed at: https://lofarx.mpifr-bonn.mpg.de/cacti/graph_view.php
The LOFAR Environment will be expanded when new sensors for the container monitoring will become available.
