We finished three plates 2919 (ct 2), 2785 (ct 4), 2794 (ct 6). We did not obtained useful S/N for cart.7 plate 2521 (clouds!). One more plate, baoTest 2959, might be done after ~2 hours of observations, we asked its evaluation. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- No telescope vibrations today. The spectro focus was checked but not adjusted; it's set for about 0.0 degrees C. The spectro numbers via collimate are posted in the Problems Section. I mounted cart 05. The disk space at /data and /files was good; see below: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 142G 127G 8.1G 95% / /dev/sda1 99M 30M 64M 33% /boot /dev/sdb1 917G 604G 267G 70% /data sdssfiles1:/data1/data 1.5T 539G 855G 39% /files iccSoundOff responded that all crates were available; see Problems Section for command's output. 23:45Z - Doors and louvers opened, fans on.
