Date: 
Sunday, May 26, 2024
Telescope: 
CTIO Blanco 4-m
Submitter:

Observer Support: 
Manuel Hernandez
Night Assistant: 
Claudio Aguilera
Also Present: 
Rodrigo Hernadez, Charlie Kilpatrick, Gabriel Teixeira
Problems: 

We find it extremely diffcult to observe using zoom and we prefer access to the VNC.

For Engineering: Took standard star data in JHKs in all for detectors at various exposure times.  Took standard star data in 1644, 2124, and 2168 i all four detectors.  Performed SV observations of galaxy cluster using NB1187 and J.  We did not encounter any problems with dither sequences (10min exposures) being performed while guiding.  Guiding successfullly followed offsets of 50" EW and NS.
