The rest of observations will be APOGEE plates. ---- Observing Summary ---- Clear skies, variable seeing. Observed the following: BOSS ---- Cart. 15, 7334 - 5X900s exposures Cart. 18, 7336 - 7X900s exposures APOGEE ------ Cart. 1, 5221, N188_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 2 faint fibers in dome flat **Cart. 6, 7225, ORIONB_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 34 faint fibers in flat Cart. 8, 7266, COROTA3_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 2 missing, 1 faint fiber Cart. 9, 6331, 229+04_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 4 faint fibers in flat Cart. 3, 7217, 188+18_A - 3XABBA @ 500s each; 6 faint fibers in flat Cart. 5, 7271, NGP_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 1 missing, 1 faint fiber in flat **Four of the faint fibers in the dome flat for cartridge 6 (#'s 2, 15, 34, 297) have been faint each of the last two nights, but the other 30 are sequential (#'s 121-150). We inspected the gang connector and the gang connector port on cartridge 6 looking for debris on one of the fiber termination blocks, but didn't find anything obvious. No other cartridges had problems like this with their respective dome flats. Maybe there had been debris, but it became dislodged during the gang connector swap after the field had been observed? Will the day staff please inspect/clean the gang connector port on cartridge 6? ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon: ---------- BOSS collimation was checked on cart 15.
