MDM Trouble Report for 2003 Jan 6

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Crotts (Columbia)
Instrument: Mark III Spectrograph/Templeton

Problem(s) Encountered:
Tracking started slipping periodically again, for a short time
at 0530MST, when the telescope was at about -2.5h HA, 0 Dec.

Also, chichon crashed in the middle of an exposure, for no
apparent reason.  I was typing at the keyboard, so I don't
think it was a static discharge, nor do I think what I was
typing was the cause.  The computer rebooted itself and 
observing contiued.
