Observing Summary:

There were clouds all night with some moments
worse than others. 
All program was done.
J0111-1357: First, I am not sure i observed the right object
since there was ambiguity between name and coordinates. Anyway,
it was pretty cloudy during all the time of observation of
this object.
QJ0240-343: the only guide star i could find was far from the 
center of the field; thus, the target won't be at center of the 
CCD.
A0620: The guide star was moving a lot in the TV screen even
when the wind was light. Guiding wasn't very good.

I had the two usual crashes (one at the begining of the night, one at the end)

Aql X-1: R=0.70
         V=1.97
         R=0.68
