Split night between Points and Esplin.
For 1st part of night (Points) we spent ~1hr performing pointing and guiding tests since the observer from 2021-01-03 reported acquisition problems due to guiding and/or zero point. From these tests we were able to have the object within a 1 arcmin circle from the center of the detector. These tests were performed for a range of declinations between -75deg to +25deg at an hour angle between +/- 1hr. Rest of the 1st part of the night was spent obtaining optical spectra of LMC SNRs that Points obtained TSpec4 spectra at SOAR in Nov 2020.
Esplin - Instrument worked great without any problems. Observed 12 targets in program.
