The coated container was wrapped in four Ta foil heatshields.

Target temperature on OMEGA= 1860-1900 C

OMEGA slope:= 0.990

Target time at max temperature = 4 hours

Final Current TBHT= 230A

Final TGHT current= ~400A (adjustable)

Good vacuum = 5.0 e-02 Torr

Bad vacuum = 5.0E-04 Torr

Started ramping TGHT and TBHT @ 1.5A/min to 387 A and 230A respectively.

IGP1 initial = 9.6 e-07 Torr

Cooling projected at 6:48 am tomorrow.

Final IGP1= 1.6e-o6 Torr

Started rampdown @-2A/min TGHT and -1A/min TBHT

Coating looks good uniformely.

OMEGA 1850 C (was 1868 initially)

TGHT was 387A, 6.6 V and TBHT was 230A, 4.1 V

Coating very nice
