Observing Summary:


Hello - This was  a different night...  We had some tremors that shook
the telescope making me lose the guiding star by a good marging 
during Aql X-1 (2310UT)

I was not able to observe MB99022 for Ohio S. due to a lacck of time.

The Logs have that funny pattern again - aparently when the system (instrument and computer)
crashes, the TCS (telescope controler) somewhat disconects itself from WC thus
loosing some of the Log data - It is not a complete disconnection
since if it should disconnect completely it would show no info at all.

This is a new a ocurrence - I will keep an eye on it more often
until we find the reasson why it does it.

Aql magnitude in R Band: 2.8
