Date	Name	Affiliation	Other Observers	Instrument	Hours Observed	Hours Lost	Reason	Observing Program
05/01/2022	William Keel	University of Alabama	2 cats	ARC CCD	2.5	6	Other	Closed due to dust/smoke per 4m operator (Ken Rumstay pointed that out - at sunset a couple of domes including WIYN were open so I was lulled). Dead quasar survey. Focus=439500, guider focus 0.
04/30/2022	Stephen Gillam	ERAU	None	ARC Camera	10	0	No problems to report	rOAp stars. Note: The CCD isn't quite lined up with the cardinal directions. N is to the right and W is up on images. There is a slight rotation of the CCD wrt the cardinal directions.
04/24/2022	Martha A. Leake	Valdosta State University	none	ARC camera	9	1.5	Other	Asteroid observations, no problems to report. Another event causes the 1.5 h hours lost. Smoke was not an issue.
04/23/2022	Van Hamme	FIU	Samec	CCD	10	0	No problems to report	Observations of interacting binaries. GSC 30151656 and NSVS 10803881.
04/21/2022	Amy Lovell	Agnes Scott	Alex Yep, AST200L students	CCD + spectrograph demo	4	4	Wind	Training for AST 200L students with CCD, plus demo of spectrograph at the end Closed due to high and increasing winds, but we got most of what we needed ascom guide camera (for spectra) is not seeing the sky consistently, something odd is afoot, one time "move" made the star reappear, but it would disappear again with no explanation
04/18/2022	Kyle Pellegrin	Clemson University	N/A	ARC CCD	4	0	Clouds	Intermittent clouds, but was able to collect some good data.
04/11/2022	Ted von Hippel	ERAU	Leila Alamos, Yaneicy Jimenez	imaging	6	0	No problems to report	variable WD
04/13/2022	Stephen Gillam	ERAU	None	Andor Camera	10	0	No problems to report	rOAp stars.
04/10/2022	Tom Rutherford	ETSU	None	CCD	4	0	No problems to report	Asteroid. No issues.
04/09/2022	Walter VanHamme	FIU	Samec	CCD	10	0	No problems to report	Observations of interacting binaries.
04/08/2022	Ted von Hippel	ERAU	Lelia Alamos, Yaneicy Jimenez	imaging	7	0	No problems to report	Variable white dwarf photometry. The remainder of the night went to Kyle Pellegrin, a PhD student at Clemson for GRB work.
04/07/2022	Kyle Pellegrin	Clemson University	N/A	ARC CCD	3.25	0	Software/Control PC Issues	Had to restart ACE Node service to allow camera to download images to MaximDL. Other than that, everything went well.
