MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2019 Apr 14

Observer(s): Rupert
Institution(s): MDM

Instrument: OSMOS/B

Worked for 10.5 hours (all night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Calm
   Mid: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Calm
   End: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

Noticed squeaking when moving fast enough in RA. If moved
at the guide and set speeds, there was no noise. At the
slew speed it sounded like squeaking emanating from the
bearing that recently had been discovered to have walked
a little bit. This didn't seem to affect anything, but
might be something to look into before something does.

Light cirrus popped in and out throughout the night,
but also didn't really hinder observations. A fine end
to this run!
