Comments: 

Thanks! to Don Jorge Briones and Bernardo Aguilera for fixing the broke DEC drive. 

As reported time ago by Wei-Chun Jao, the ponting is 'bad' for objects at low declinations South (e.g., at -72 degrees, the object is at the right hand edge of the guider.)

Object T0010555977, as requested in NOS got 3 lamps || || || Object RKS2131-3833: used B star as a guider. || || || RINGSS down: no seeing data || || || Weather: all night, thin and cirrus clouds from SW moving to E/NE.

Observed object RKS 0035-0203 through thin clouds (plus Moon.) || || || File 1174, the exposure did not stop once the threshold was reached. || || || T0098728690, partially cloudy + Moon. Added file 1185

The program was completed.
