MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2010 Jun 11

Observer(s): Milisavljevic
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: CCDS

Worked for 7 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 2 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate
   Mid: Seeing 2.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate
   End: Seeing 2 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate

Observing Summary:

Beautifully clear skies but windy and poor seeing conditions. I
hate these kinds of nights. Managed to get some good data, though.

Mid-evening the CCDS images displayed erratic behavior. I've seen
this before: random columns are 3-8 counts below background.
Running a few bias frames and a little cursing seemed to make
it go away.
