MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observing Report for 2015 Apr 19

Observer(s): Black & Neustadt
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: Echelle

Worked for 5 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

Clear skies again with a bit of wind.

We had some problems with the guider not guiding well, particularly in X.
We tried changing the aggressiveness, but it didn't seem to make a noticeable 
difference.  By the end of the night it was guiding just fine.  Maybe the issue is
 due to wind?
