MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2001 Apr 13

Observer(s): Wagner and Ryan
Institution(s): LBTO (OSU) and U. Arizona

Instrument: Echelle

Worked for 8.5 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 1.3 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm
   End: Seeing 1.6 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

No problems encountered.  Everything worked very well.  We
stayed in 1 filter (R) to avoid any problems with the filter
wheel which Bob said should only be rotated in one direction.
I had planned in alternating between B and R or V and R all
night but with my student here alone Sat and Sun nights I
decided to keep it simple until Mon and Tue nights when I
will be back. Obtained 64 5-min frames of J1118+480.
