MDM Trouble Report for 2003 Jan 30

Telescope: 1.3m
Observer(s): Reed, Patterson (Columbia)
Instrument: Templeton

Problem(s) Encountered:
The drop-out shutter is not closing (~6:30AM).  It opened up 
normally @ ~5:30PM last night.

*Contacts are touching*
*The red light on the control box lights up, but nothing happens
*Main Shutter closed fine*
*Attempted to use Aux- no luck (needs to be plugged in?)

It is now 6:45 w/ very clear weather (no chance of rain).  Since
staff will be here shortly, I will leave the drop-out open.
