|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
06/12/2026 | Martha A. Leake | Valdosta State University | none | CCD | 0 | 8 | Connection Issues | Connection issues (probably from my side), cloud cover (less than earlier) |
06/12/2026 | Steve Gillam | ERAU (retired) | Desiree Robinson, Matthew Hernandez | ARC Camera | 0 | 9 | Clouds | Microvariables. |
06/03/2026 | Antonio Circiello | Clemson University | Dieter Hartmann | KP | 0 | 8 | Other | The collimation is being adjusted. I could not perform the photometry I needed with the current setting |
06/11/2026 | Raven Powers | ETAMU | Billy Quarles | CCD | 8 | 1 | Clouds | Target: V1460 Her, Best focus 99000 |
06/10/2026 | Aarran Shaw | Butler | None | CCD | 1 | 6 | Other | Had best focus at 81000 for about an hour but then lost it and could not find good focus again. Focus is far too volatile since collimation issues to do acceptable imaging. I would love an autofocus routine on this scope! |
06/07/2026 | Yong Sheng | Clemson University | Dieter Hartmann | CCD BVRI | 0 | 8 | Other | The collimation is being adjusted. I could not perform photometry I needed with the current setting. |
06/07/2026 | Gary Henson | ETSU | none | Spectrograph | 7 | 0 | No problems to report | Spectroscopy of WR star, confirmed operational status of spectrograph and all guide cameras. |
06/05/2026 | Todd Vaccaro | Ball State University | n/a | ARC | 8 | 0 | No problems to report | Eclipsing binary photometry and nova monitoring. Took about 30 minutes to get best focus. |
06/03/2026 | Kaylee Grace | UD/MCAO | N/A | CCD | 0 | 2 | No problems to report | Peter was finishing up the work on KP for the first ~3 hours of the night. Our observers this night were new and going to be trained, so starting at 1 AM just didn't work well for our schedule. Looking forward to using it now that it's all back together!! |
05/30/2026 | Kaylee Grace | UD/MCAO | N/A | N/A | 0 | 7 | Other | Telescope still closed for repairs and re-installation. Thanks to Peter for all his hard work on this! Looking forward to using it when it's back up and running. |
05/20/2026 | Ken Watanabe | Florida Gulf Coast University | Jonathan Zielinski, Evelyn | CCD | 0 | 8 | Other | closed due to maintenance on mirror |
05/18/2026 | Yong Sheng | Clemson University | Dieter Hartmann | CCD griz | 0 | 8 | Other | The telescope is not operational due to mirror re-installation. |
