With Ok seeing. For awhile. Then the winds picked up and gusted to 37 mph and shot seeing up to nearly 3" :/ But it was still a clear night and we got everyone some beautiful data on our much improved DIS! All the users tonight were *extremely* pelased with the blue camera. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- FAILURE MODE TIME PROG INSTR TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:07 dcamera 652( 1232) 76 53 15.4 17.0 16.8 16.7 15.4 -- 1.36 19:42 dcamera 594( 1144) -63 44 16.5 16.4 16.4 15.8 15.9 -- 1.39 21:34 dcamera 552( 1099) -20 36 16.2 16.1 16.7 16.2 16.3 -- 1.61 03:01 dcamera 535( 984) 13 67 15.2 14.5 15.1 14.5 14.9 -- 2.16 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 65 18 16 303 (WNW) 821 clear none 17:00 63 18 13 308 (NW) 754 clear none 18:00 63 18 10 272 (W) 748 clear none 19:00 60 15 11 270 (W) 845 clear none 20:00 61 17 13 282 (WNW) 683 clear none 21:00 62 18 14 296 (WNW) 523 clear none 22:00 60 17 11 304 (NW) 520 clear none 23:00 62 17 1 294 (WNW) 556 clear none 00:00 60 15 19 353 (N) 655 clear none 01:00 59 14 13 5 (N) 492 clear none 02:00 59 15 25 4 (N) 812 clear none 03:00 59 13 27 21 (NNE) 604 clear none 04:00 59 15 24 12 (NNE) 536 clear none 05:00 59 15 15 14 (NNE) 753 clear none 06:00 57 14 26 11 (N) 520 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
