Observing Summary:

Clouds were an issue all night. Started patchy and increased in
coverage. Stopped observing around 2:30 and closed at 4:30.

No focus issues thanks to the work Eric did today.

Telescope jumped eight times in the first 2 1/2 hours. Decided
to monitor this closer by applying tape to the polar axis
whenever a jump occurred. Perhaps that will be telling. Also
noting time and HA of jumps in my observing log. All jumps tonight
occurred between 1:30 and 4 in HA.
