Final day of observing in this 5-day run. Clear skies at sunset; anticipated best seeingof all 5 days.

Intermittent wind. Seeing tended to be best for objects close to 1.00 airmass.

No instrument or software problems other than the dec oscillation at large airmasses/hour angles/decs. 
Was able to (mostly) circumvent this by waiting for object to arrive at smallest hour angle.
