The log from experiment v216a4 has been copied to:
ftp.atnf.csiro.au:/pub/people/vlbi/incoming/
ANTAB and UVFLG files have been copied to the same place.

Additional experiment notes:
This is the log processed message for Smart-1 lunar impact recorded at Ho.
Mark5 module shipped to JIVE using Australian airExpress (DHL).
LBA recorder data is still on the disk in HOVSI and will not be shipped.

Run went OK.
Cryogenics only just made the distance.

Observers: Brett Reid, Jamie Stevens
