MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2008 Mar 08

Observer(s): Kunder
Institution(s): Dartmouth College

Instrument: Echelle

Worked for 10.5 hours (all night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 3 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate
   Mid: Seeing 2.2 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

A nice night of observing.  The weather was not photometric,
and the seeing varied a lot, esp. at the beginning of the night.
The ccdcom crashed 13 times tonight with the same error message as
that I put in my trouble report last night.  Although this did
not cause me to lose a significant chunk of time, it hindered 
and decreased important observations that I needed at minimum 
or maximum light.
