Plate 2067 , Brian Yanny please, see if it is DONE. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon Checkout: ------------------ No problems noted during checkout. Spectro focus checked, but not changed. Night: ------ We opened to clear skies at sunset for spectroscopy. 01:15Z Cartridge 1, plate 1543 - Lowz Used an FK5 in bright twilight to find the field. Seining 1.3 arcsec, non-stable, up to 1.5 arcsec. obtanined on both "r" S/N >= 4.4, The plate is done. 02:06Z Cartridge 2, plate 1556 - Lowz Used an FK5 - to find field. Seening mostly sub-arcsecond, =54.9 except 'r2' with S/N=48.0) We asked Brian Yanny for feedback. 04:25Z Cartridge 7, plate 2051 - Segue Seening 1.2 arcsec or better. The plate is done. 05:00Z Cartridge 9, plate 2330 - Seguefaint Used an FK5 - to find field. Seening 1.4 arcsec. Completed this plate with a total exposure time of 6900 sec. 07:45Z Cartridge 3, plate 2297 - Chunk Seening 1.3 arcsec.
