MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observer's Report for 2003 Jun 23

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

Instrument: Modspec + Echelle CCD

Worked for 9 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate
   Mid: Seeing 1-3 arcsec, Clear, Winds High
   End: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate

Observing Summary:

Another very clear night with moderate to high-ish winds all
night and highly variable seeing.  Seeing was better than last
night with some long intervals of good seeing.  Telescope 
tracking failed on one occasion just as in previous nights, not
worth another trouble report at this point.  Things went
very smoothly altogether.  Continued spectroscopy of 
cataclysmics, several orbital periods are already in the bag
for this run.
