MDM Trouble Report for 2003 Oct 21

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): D. Grupe & S. Frank (OSU)
Instrument: CCDS

Problem(s) Encountered:
At 03:00 the telescope lost tracking several times while trying to observe
a source at an hour angle of -3.5 h to the east with 
declination +03d. The airmass was 1.6 which is low, but not 
unusual. We could not find any obviuos reason. At first the telescope
is able to point at the source and is tracking fine, but after a few 
minutes it stops tracking. After going to a different source 
every thing seems to be fine.
