MDM Trouble Report for 2004 Jan 12

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): John Thorstensen (Dartmouth)
Instrument: echelle ccd direct + 2in FW

Problem(s) Encountered:
For one integration I got:

ccd_aread: timed out
*** Error encountered in asynchronous read: data suspect
Failed, return code = 1048576, elapsed = 57.754

The read should have taken about 38 sec with the format
I was using. I cleared the chip and tried again, and it worked,
but I did notice a horizontal noisy band in the middle of the
next image.  No further problems after that.
