Summary:  OBs completed:  OSU_MONITOR_N6503, OSU_MONITOR_N6946a, OSU_MONITOR_N672, OSU_MONITOR_N628, OSU_MONITOR_N925, UVa_SUPER, OSU_Monitor_N2403, OSU_Monitor_I2574, OSU_Monitor_M81a, OSU_Monitor_M82.  A few problems with OBs (see details in log), and at one point the LBC-red shutter would not open.  However, this problem was fixed after power-cycling the cameras.

Weather:  Clear, some wind.  Seeing was bad for the first OB, then improved to ~1.2 arcsec and remained.  

Instrument: LBC

POINTING STAR: 
UT 01:36 -- Preset to pointing star.
UT 01:39 -- dofpia
UT 01:43 -- One second exposure for pointing star.

UT 02:48 -- Note: strange strip of light on red chips

OSU_MONITOR_N672:
UT 02:53 -- preset to focus field and collimate
   	 -- co-pointing correction (lbcrangebal)
UT 03:13 -- Start OSU_MONITOR_N672.ob

UVa_SUPER:
UT 05:13 -- preset to focus field and collimate 
UT 05:22 -- co-pointing correction.  Focus field shows no stars -- the focus.ob script has an exptime of 1s.  Change the exptime of their focus OB manually (in the LBC GUI) to 16s and try again.  Focus field image still shows only bias. 

UVa_SUPER UDS_gi: 
UT 05:28 -- UDS_focus.ob did not have the shutter open.  Edit the .ob to open the shutter and re-do.
UT 05:34 -- Start UDS_gi_1.ob, seeing ~1.8 in red, 2.2 in blue
UT 05:44 -- Start UDS_gi_2.ob 
UT 05:53 -- Start UDS_gi_3.ob, seeing slightly improved, ~1.6 in red, ~2 in blue
UT 06:09 -- Start UDS_gi_4.ob, seeing slightly improved, ~1.5 in red, ~1.7 in blue 
UT 06:18 -- Start UDS_gi_5.ob, seeing about the same

UVa_SUPER UDS_UNB: 
UT 06:29 -- Go to focus field and collimate (this time with the edited OB to have the shutter open!)
UDS_UNB_1:
	UT 06:35 -- Co-pointing correction  
	UT 06:39 -- Start UDS_UND_1.ob, seeing ~1 in red, ~1.4 in blue. 
UDS_UNB_2: 
	UT 07:10 -- Go to focus field and collimate 
	UT 07:16 -- Co-pointing correction  
	UT 07:19 -- Start UDS_UND_2.ob, seeing ~1.2 red, 1.1 in blue 
UDS_UNB_3: 
	UT 07:45 -- Go to focus field and collimate 
	UT 07:50 -- Co-pointing correction  
	UT 07:53 -- Start UDS_UND_3.ob, seeing ~1.1 red, 1.3 in blue 
	UT 08:10 -- on second set of exposures, seeing gets slightly worse, ~1.2 in red, ~1.5 in blue
UDS_UNB_4: 
	UT 08:22 -- Go to focus field and collimate 
	UT 08:29 -- Co-pointing  correction  
	UT 08:31 -- Start UDS_UND_4.ob, seeing ~0.9 red, 1.2 in blue
	UT 08:45 -- seeing ~0.9 red, ~1 in blue
	UT 08:57 -- seeing ~0.9 red, ~1.2 in blue

UDS_UNB_5:

	UT 09:04 -- Co-pointing  correction  
	UT 09:06 -- Start UDS_UND_5.ob 
	UT 09:14 -- seeing 0.9 red, 1.1 blue 
	UT 09:27 -- seeing 0.9 red, 1.1 blue 

UDS_STRIPE_82 and UDS_STRIPE_gi: 

	UT 09:36 -- Go to focus field and collimate 
	UT 09:41 -- Co-pointing correction 
	UT 09:43 -- Start STRIPE82_UNB.ob
	   	    First exposure came out fine, but the following ones all have bias level counts.  
		    PROBLEM WITH STRIPE82_UNB.ob -- The number of Rfilters and the number of Bfilters in the OB was set to 3, instead of 1. This is not obvious from anywhere within the OBGUI, but if you look at the OB in a text editor, number of filters is set to 3.  Therefore, a 300 second frame would be taken, and then a series of 1 second exposures with Filter='empty' were taken.  

        UT 10:23 -- Start STRIPE82_gi.ob 		    
	   	    Seeing ~0.9 in red, ~1.1 in blue 

	
OSU_Monitor_N2403:

UT 10:34 -- Collimate 
UT 10:39 -- Co-pointing correction 
UT 10:41 -- Start N2403 ob, seeing ~1 in red, ~1.3 in blue  

OSU_Monitor_M81a: 
UT 10:51 -- Go to M81 focus field 

*** PROBLEM with the red shutter -- it won't open, but there are no error messages indicating a problem.  All LBC-red images have bias level counts. 

UT 11:05 -- Power cycle the cameras
UT 11:15 -- Shutter opens now.  

UT 11:16 -- collimation on M81a focus field. 
UT 11:19 -- Co-pointing correction 
UT 11:22 -- Start M81a ob, seeing ~1.

OSU_Monitor_I2574: 
UT 11:35 -- Move to focus field.  
UT 11:39 -- Co-pointing correction  
UT 11:41 -- Start I2574 ob. 
   	    Blue side slightly elongated on first image.
	    Seeing ~1.1 in red, 1.2 in blue 

OSU_Monitor_M82: 
UT 11:53 -- Move to focus field and collimate 
UT 11:57 -- Co-pointing correction 
UT 12:00 -- Start M82 ob. 


SKY FLATS: 
UT 12:13 -- Move to UVa_SUPER skyflat field (skyflat_sunrise.ob)
UT 12:18 -- 20 second flats, counts too low still, ~700 counts.  Weird mirror shadows in the flats. 

UT 12:25 -- Move to a slightly offset field and re-try 
   	 -- no more mirror shadow, but still too low on counts 

UT 12:35 -- Switch to B and R filters, take 5 dithered sky flats.  B-band counts ~12000-20000, R-band counts ~7500-12000.
UT 12:41 -- 5 more dithered sky flats with B and R filters. 


UT 12:49 -- Switch to filters for UVa_SUPER.  Take 5 dithered flats in Uspec and F972 filters. 
UT 12:54 -- Take 5 more dithered flats in Uspec and F972 filters.
