Dembicky John Barentine did the instrument checkout for me tonight. My observer started taking her cals around 20:30 and I opened up when she finished, around 21:00 under 1 arc sec seeing. We had some clouds move in around 02:45 but observed thru them. No problems. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE TIME S/E/G/D/O TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Air/Truss Wind Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp-C Dir MPH filt FWHM --------------------------------------------------------------------- 21:05 DISslit -20(969) 102 57 15.4/16.4 154 13 none 0.98 21:08 NA2gdr 676(54676) 102 58 15.5/16.4 159 11 R 1.17 01:12 DISslit 80(931) 87 58 13.1/13.3 119 12 none 1.56 01:14 NA2gdr 3024(57024) 87 58 13.1/13.4 118 11 R 1.58 --------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 18:01 60 48 13 134 (SE) 1147 Mst Clr none 19:01 62 43 12 188 (S) 804 Mst Clr none 20:01 60 42 13 148 (SSE) 827 Mst Clr none 21:01 59 41 12 150 (SSE) 792 Mst Clr none 22:01 58 43 17 141 (SE) 1091 Clear none 23:01 57 44 13 127 (SE) 1265 Clear none 00:01 56 42 19 128 (SE) 1287 Clear none 01:01 56 41 8 112 (ESE) 1258 Clear none 02:01 56 41 7 113 (ESE) 1260 Clear none 03:01 56 41 6 102 (ESE) 1290 Pt.
