Everything was downloaing fine on our end. I recommended they exit and restart their TUI session to see if it clears things. Their exposure times were 25.5s, maybe a backlog? The restart seemed to fix the issue. No telescope problems. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:50 kosmos 335( 1781) 238 63 21.4 23.3 22.8 23.0 22.5 -- 1.03 23:15 arctic 359( 1721) 11 63 20.4 20.5 21.0 20.1 20.3 BG40 0.90 23:16 NA2gdr -2078(35921) 10 63 20.4 20.5 20.9 20.1 20.2 clear 1.06 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 74 30 8 322 (NW) 1302 ptly cldy none 17:00 84 32 6 252 (WSW) 1233 ptly cldy none 18:00 78 30 11 253 (WSW) 1139 ptly cldy none 19:00 72 29 7 276 (W) 1219 ptly cldy none 20:00 70 28 2 239 (WSW) 1187 mstly clr none 21:00 70 28 1 203 (SSW) 1195 clear none 22:00 70 28 2 199 (SSW) 1199 clear none 23:00 69 28 3 204 (SSW) 1287 clear none 00:00 68 27 9 183 (S) 1419 clear none 01:00 67 27 9 186 (S) 2722 clear none 02:00 67 27 7 196 (SSW) 2342 clear none 03:00 67 27 8 231 (SW) 1810 clear none 04:00 67 28 3 216 (SW) 1737 clear none 05:00 67 28 2 217 (SW) 1577 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
