The dust counters went offline a little before 4AM. Since dust had been pretty constant, high but below limits, and the humidity was low, I kept us open. No telescope problems tonight. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:21 dcamera 582( 1305) 143 77 13.4 14.9 14.8 14.8 14.5 -- 1.30 21:50 dcamera 463( 1095) 43 65 12.4 12.9 13.5 12.6 12.8 -- 1.40 01:29 kosmos 439( 1143) -73 54 11.0 10.6 11.2 10.7 10.8 -- 1.43 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 65 5 20 257 (WSW) 4139 clear dust 17:00 64 4 26 234 (SW) 4461 clear dust 18:00 61 2 29 232 (SW) 5086 clear dust 19:00 60 3 28 215 (SW) 4876 clear dust 20:00 55 2 22 250 (WSW) 4885 clear dust 21:00 55 1 22 254 (WSW) 4541 clear dust 22:00 54 4 29 250 (WSW) 5291 clear dust 23:00 54 5 24 255 (WSW) 4881 clear dust 00:00 53 5 17 271 (W) 4965 clear dust 01:00 52 3 14 265 (W) 5378 clear dust 02:00 51 3 13 276 (W) 5309 clear dust 03:00 50 4 14 266 (W) 5370 clear dust 04:00 48 6 19 259 (W) clear dust 05:00 48 7 17 272 (W) clear dust Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
