NOTE: VERY STRANGE CCD IMAGE IN DS9!! As if something is on the
CCD or in the light path. NDM notified. |
Problem is condensation on the camera
window. Checked flat obs from previous nights - appears to have
just started on 20060730 and gotten progressively worse over the last
couple of nights. Presumably related to the extremely humid
weather conditions of the past few days. |

No point in further observations. Closing
up. Files saved in case we can save the H alpha profile for delta
Sco (order 9 is slightly less affected). |
|||||
|
|
|
Per NDM instructions, door to echelle room to be
left open in hopes of getting A/C in there to help with condensation. |
