 +1. set up(there was a dent in the adapter removed from filter wheel by force(vicegrips and hammer)\\
 + - kept focus as 1913.6\\
 +2. Used Vega for pointing and took flats in all filters \\ 
 +2. slew to Saturn \\
 +3. slew to Uranus \\
 +4. Slew to GD391 fig 15 in paper,make sure DFM uses J2000 epoch 
 + - gain:150 actual:4.4, Skybrightness:17.74, integration time 1.2s for filter V (we can see a 15 magnitude star GD391 D !!!) \\ 
 + - Saved as GD391_tr011_agon.fits (source name explained tr011 means tracking rate is 15.011, agon means autoguiding on)\\
 + - PHD 2 is getting 11-13 for the FWHM
 + - gain:150 actual:4.4,skybrightness 1.84 integration time 11.6s for filter U \\
 + - Saved as GD391_tr011_agon.fits \\
 + - gain:150 actual:4.44,skybrightness 14.26 integration time 1.5s for filter B \\
 + - Saved as GD391_tr011_agon.fits \\
 + - gain:150 actual:4.44,skybrightness 20.2 integration time 1.1s for filter R \\
 + - Saved as GD391_tr011_agon.fits \\
 + - gain:150 actual:4.44,skybrightness 4.62 integration time 4.6s for filter I\\
 + - Saved as GD391_tr011_agon.fits \\
 +5. Slew to Vega \\
 +6. Slew to Mirach to focus the finder DON'T TOUCH THE WHEEL\\
 +7. Slew to Darth Vader's starfighter \\
 +8.Slew to Uranus,Saturn,Neptune,Jupiter(take images in BVR 5ms) \\
 +9. Attempted a couple nebula and Galaxies most bad\\
 +10. take NGC 891 frames in BVR for 3 minutes each and then 6 frames for 30s in BVR \\
 +11. Slew to NGC 2276 and Take 3 minute  frames in BVRI\\
 +12. Slew to Zenith and take darks 3min,30s,11.6s,4.6s,1.5s,1.2s,1.1s,5ms
 +13. shut down procedure leave
