01/30/2021	Keefe Kamp	Florida Tech	Caballero, Le, Klare	CCD	11	0	No problems to report	Standard Star Feilds taken for calibration. The only problem that occurred was accidentally pressing abort twice and needing to follow the notepad instructions to reconnect the camera.
01/28/2021	Amy Lovell	Agnes Scott College	King	CCD	3	3	Connection Issues	student training, images for lab analysis, connection problems at this end, tried to find the right pointing offset a few times
01/29/2021	Amy Lovell	Agnes Scott College	Krahm	CCD	2	7	Clouds	Student training, thin clouds rolled over after not too long
01/27/2021	Van Hamme	FIU	Samec	FLI camera	9	3	Equipment Failure	Observations of Eclipsing Variables, EI Oct and WISEJ051352.5-170113. Network problems. connection very weak. Closed down multiple times. Very slow reacting.
01/25/2021	Walter Van Hamme	FIU	Samec	FLI camera	12	0	No problems to report	Observations of Eclipsing Variables, EI Oct and WISEJ051352.5-170113.
01/25/2021	Van Hmme	FIU	Samec	FLI Camera	12	0	No problems to report	Observations of Eclipsing Variables, EI Oct and WISEJ051352.5-170113.
01/25/2021	Tomomi Otani	ERAU	Andy Baran	CCD	9	0	No problems to report	Hot Subdwarf stars photometry time series. Focus 134700 at the beginning of the night, and I needed to increase it later. The weather was good but some clouds came during the second half of the night. Telescope was working well.
01/22/2021	Tom Rutherford	ETSU	Gary Henson	CCD	5	3	Clouds	Cloudy first part of the night, but cleared around local midnight. The telescope and CCD worked perfectly.

01/20/2021	Tomomi Otani	ERAU	No one	CCD	7	0	No problems to report	Subdwarf B star photometry time series for searching for companions. Everything was working well and the weather was good too.
01/18/2021	James Webb	Florida International University	Keslo Estil	CCD	6	0	No problems to report	Galaxy imaging
01/18/2021	Núria Torres-Albà	Clemson University	Dieter Hartmann	-	8	0	No problems to report	Clemson University Blazar Observations. No problems to report.
01/14/2021	Ken Watanabe	FGCU	Nick Rimbert	None	0	9	Connection Issues	Not able to keep connection using cisco vpn on win 10. Not other way to connect?.
01/08/2021	Ken Rumstay	VSU	None	CCD camera	9	0	No problems to report	AGN monitoring program No problems to report. Telescope tends to point north of target, as noted by Bill Keel. Optimum focus 131000 at 12 Celsius. CCD temperature was -28 Celsius at start; it cooled to -30 within an hour and remained there.
