I've tried submitting observations several times in the last few days for Andromeda in HI wavelengths. Has anyone else had recent success with the 20m scope? It has been reporting IDLE or no status for the past few days? Maybe the staff are just on vacation?

It seems nothing wrong with the telescope. However, the last observation was on December 17th (by a different user, not from SARA, http://www.gb.nrao.edu/20m/peak/latest). There's no need to cancel an observation if Skynet can't perform it. The observation can be in a "ready" status, waiting to be performed.

It auto cancelled my most recent one after 2 or 3 days of idle status.

Now the telescope works well; suspended observations are being carried out.
