MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observer's Report for 2007 Jan 03

Observer(s): K. Schlesinger
Institution(s): OSU

Instrument: CCDCOM

Worked for 12 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 0.8 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Seeing 1.25 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

Weather was fine all night. Had difficulty with the telescope 
pointing again. Went through it with Paul and was able to point; 
that lost about half an hour. Lost around an hour when the dome 
was not moving as it would. Bob helped me reset the azimuth, etc. 
and dome was fine from that point on. Got good observations of 
6 galaxies in the 663 and 693 filters. Of the other two galaxies 
observed, one had dome problems, and it was getting too light out 
for the other. Seeing from 0.8  to 1.5  over the course of the night.
