DAOF SCHP

We put the DAOF SCHP at the coordinates provided by Ted Dunham.  Results are in the image.  The green circles are my estimates of the center and radius of the SCHP and EXES cold stop.  The red circle is how the LCHP should appear based on measurements of their diameters.  If LCHP is the same as SOFIA secondary, our cold stop is 10% (by area) oversized with the CsI lens.  This is consistent with Kristin's findings that we seem to have a larger f-cone and Curtis and Mark's work with the FCLS (best imaging focus at 250 mm into EXES - forward of the plate).



I'll try to put some numbers in this and relate to previous TAAS work later.
