MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2001 Nov 15

Observer(s): M. Aller
Institution(s): University of Michigan

Instrument: CCD Direct (Echelle)

Worked for 12.5 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.3 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm
   Mid: Seeing 1.6 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm
   End: Seeing 1.6 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

I imaged 9 nearby galaxies in B, R and H-alpha. I took
Landolts in the beginning, middle and end of the night. 
In the middle of the night the problem where the set
button, in conjunction with either North or South, failed to
work reoccured again (as it did 2 nights ago). This seemed to
disappear later in the night,
however. The problem where when slewing in RA, the telescope
also noticeably moves in Dec (and vice versa) also occured
in the middle of the night, but became less noticeable towards
morning.
