Night Assistant: 
Rodrigo Hinojosa
Problems: 

The telescope lost the tracking several times along the night, to recover it I had to turn off/on the tracking switch and center back the star in the guider, so many spectra were obtained with this correction while exposing. David Rojas evaluated and cleaned some electronic devices in the R.A. motor, but the problem is bigger and should be repaired during the day.
