I will switch to HR mode (specifically running hr_ve_fe_me - FOV 620"x310") if you give me a target for HR observing 24 hours in advance each day. Otherwise, I'll stick with 1 minute cadence, FD Magnetograms and Dopplergrams. The only thing I don't have control over are the high rate times. I understand your concern about Aug 3&4, they don't have much high rate for the 7-13:30UT time. I cannot change this, unfortunately. Sunday looks better, though. I will also send out the weekly plan for week 32 on Thursday, hopefully, we will have more high rate during the 7-13:30UT observing times! I'll be in touch each Thursday with a new weekly plan for the upcoming week. Good observing!
