MDM Trouble Report for 2011 Feb 3

Telescope: 1.3m
Observer(s): Fesen (Dartmouth)
Instrument: 4K camera

Problem(s) Encountered:
Several times during the night when I put in new coordidates
and hit the Point button the telescope would move a bit and then stop with 
a jerk. About 5-10 seconds later it would turn off the drive
and make red the Point button. Re-starting the tracking
and hitting the (now red) Point button 2 or 3 times would get it
to finally complete the slew. Don't know if this is related
to the very cold temperature tonight (it was -13 to -17 C).

Bob: Please also see my note at the 1.3m observing room.
