MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2000 Nov 07

Observer(s): Schroeder
Institution(s): Columbia

Instrument: CCDS

Worked for 12 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm
   Mid: Seeing 1 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm
   End: Seeing 1 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

Wrapping blankets around the CCDS in order to take dome flats 
may be a good idea, but it might be nice to get larger and 
thicker blankets for the job. The ones I was using needed to be 
taped together and didn't work exactly as hoped.

I discovered the location on the CCDOPS window where it indicates 
what filter is being used. It's in the lower left corner 
and is nearly invisible. Jules and I couldn't find it for 
the two nights we tried.
