MDM Trouble Report for 2025 Jan 23

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Justin Anderson (MDM)
Instrument: OSMOS

Problem(s) Encountered:
Two issues returned. West mirror cover was out of sorts again.
when opening at 1:30am since winds died down noticed it was out of
order and resolved it myself by using the rope. One thing to note
is it doesn't close out of order, everything closes and it stays 
up. wind was howling 45-48 mph into the dome so I slewed east to 
close it just to be sure I could close up without damage.

Second issue is the loud motor issue. sounded like hammering atop
the dome, and I checked to see how loud it was in the control
room and it was vibrating the table. temp is not all that
different from yesterday when it sounded good, so I have no guesses
at the cause. No hours lost, but wanted to document.
