T842. Doug Gilliam, Mike ********************************************************************** SEPT 2 2009 ********************************************************************** Set up on AR NOAO 11025, emerging AR. Sequence 08:30 am LT seeing good, 3 small pores in IBIS FOV oriented E-W 2x 630.2 IQUV 30x Ca II 854 IQUV + H alpha I Initial startup had 1 file for the three lines which repeated in the wrong order it did line wavelength pol state Next, we had a ca 40 minute run successfully with good seeing. NO POLCALS ********************************************************************** SEPT 3/4 2009 ********************************************************************** No science data, lcvr calibrations 3-4pm on 4th. ********************************************************************** SEPT 5 2009 ********************************************************************** 11025 almost dead. AO lock so-so. periods of instability. scintillation 0.2-0.4 early (8-8:30), worsening (0.5-1.0) towards 9am IBIS E-W Cirrus, seeing mediochre/poor from 8am.
