ENR CTIO Blanco 4-m 2013-06-07

Date: 
Friday, June 7, 2013
Telescope: 
CTIO Blanco 4-m
Submitter: 
Abi Saha
Submitter Email: 
saha@noao.edu
Observer Support: 
Mauricio Rojas
Night Assistant: 
Alberto Alvarez
Also Present: 
David Rojas
Problems: 

Interlock failure at several times during the night: some were due to SISPI issues (Klaus Honschied (sp?) had to intervene) and one other required unplugging and replugging of the shutter cable at the instrument.  I am sure Mauricio Rojas can provide a more substantive narrative, and probably has, elsewhere. 

Lost about 2 hours total.

Comments: 

None. (I said too much last night...)
