MDM Trouble Report for 2011 Sep 4

Telescope: 1.3m
Observer(s): Paust/Utterback (Whitman/Dartmouth)
Instrument: R4k

Problem(s) Encountered:
An update on the focus issue.  I tried moving the focus up and then back down and it worked on the second try.  However, the focus motor now makes a squeal/screech when you lower the focus.  I decided not to see how repeatable that it.

The telescope may be at a focus value now that will produce stars instead of doughnuts although I won't know for sure until I can actually look at stars with it.
