Observing Summary:

Nice evening for observing!  Unfortuantely, I was largely 
hampered by the 25 times that CCDCOM crashed.  Of particular
note was that after crash #18, it took about 
20 min before CCDCOM established a connection.  I'm discouraged
that ccdcom is crashing more and more frequently.
