MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observing Report for 2009 Mar 08

Observer(s): John Thorstensen
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: templeton CCD direct

No Observing (see comments below)
Bad weather most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Rain all night.

Observing Summary:

Clouds grew lower and nastier all day, with intermittent bursts
of wind.  A few sprinkles by dinner morphed into steady drizzling
rain all night.  

Did take a few dome flats in the afternoon, and the problem with
the the HA drive chattering on power-up recurred.  Hitting the
East arrow on the virtual paddle (60-arcsec jump) stopped the
chattering.
