--------------------
For Arc 140a: No obvious spin problems. IBEX-Lo MCP Volt
Monitor shows "Fuzz" as usual, before Day 1 and from about Day
1.6-2.5; the fuzz suppression coincides with PMT voltage set-back, as
seen before, and is as usual reflected in Positive 12 Volt CEU Switch
Current. Otherwise Nominal.
For Arc 140b: No obvious spin problems. IBEX-Lo MCP Volt
Monitor shows "Fuzz" as usual, after Day 8.7 or so; the fuzz is as
usual reflected in Positive 12 Volt CEU Switch Current. Otherwise
Nominal.
For Arc 141a: No obvious spin problems. IBEX-HI CEM Back
Count slightly exceeds yellow limits around Day 1.2; IBEX-HI Positive
Collimator Current shows some noise and a spike at the same time and
around day 3.0. IBEX-Lo MCP Volt Monitor shows "Fuzz" as usual,
before Day 3.5 or so, with one drop-out; the fuzz is as usual
reflected in Positive 12 Volt CEU Switch Current. Otherwise Nominal.
For Arc 141b: No obvious spin problems. IBEX-Lo MCP Volt
Monitor shows "Fuzz" as usual, after Day 9; the fuzz is as usual
reflected in Positive 12 Volt CEU Switch Current. Otherwise Nominal.
For Arc 142a: Serious-looking spin problems day 1-3,
reflected in all ACS parameters, with FractionValid remaining below
0.01 for ~24 hours. After ~day 3, spin seems to lock on with no
problems thereafter. IBEX-Hi Positive Collimator Current has some
noise Days 1-1.5 or so. IBEX-Lo MCP Volt Monitor shows "Fuzz" as
usual, up to day 3; the fuzz is as usual reflected in Positive 12
Volt CEU Switch Current.
For Arc 142b: No obvious spin problems. IBEX-HI ESA Voltage
goes to 0 once at start and once at end of arc, just inside end
points. IBEX-Hi Positive Collimator Current has some noise Days
1-1.5 or so. IBEX-Lo MCP Volt Monitor shows "Fuzz" as usual, after
day 8.5, with 3 drop-outs; the fuzz is as usual reflected in Positive
12 Volt CEU Switch Current. Otherwise Nominal.

Think of it as Evolution in Fast-Forward.
