Observer Support: 
Manuel Hernandez
Night Assistant: 
Claudio Aguilera
Also Present: 
Fernando Cortez
Problems: 

Extremely slow adquisition process, the minimum adquisition time is about 10 min for a bright target. At the end of the night we had problems with data saving, we lost one image and we couldn't continue. No clear reason as we didn't touch anything. We coudn't do the flux standard becasuse of this. We had other issues but related with the learning process of using the instrument. Great support from the observer support and the night assistant.
