    Followups:

    keyword=BPM/raster check, part 3

    Beam 2 uA. Target out. BPM at nominal (0,0). Downstream quads remain on,
    we don't plan to turn them off tonight.

    Ask for 4x4 raster. Runs are with pulser trigger T8.
    Runs 1263 / 20277 (this time really 20277; the last run of halog 387716 was 20276)

    Next, ask for 6x6 raster
    Runs 1264 / 20278

    Now ask for 8x8 raster
    Runs 1265 / 20279 .... Oops, the beam is off.
    Runs 1266 / 20280

    Some first results and problems noted:

    fig 1. We do see (on both HRS, but only L-HRS shown) the spot size change with
    raster setting.

    fig 2. Some problems.
    upper left panel: raster current looks ok on L-HRS but on R-HRS we see only pedestal
    upper right: a "normal" beam position monitor. The bedposts are due to the well
    known bandpass issue.
    lower left: there is a hole in some Y distributions
    lower right: but before you conclude its a raster problem, there is no hole in some
    other Y distributions.

    Plan to sratch my head over these data later. Will sleep now.
    I recommended to the shift crew that they continue their solid target program
    with 4 x 4 setpoint raster. Keep in mind, the calibration is still very rough.
