Log
The above shows the finder scope FoV with the target in the center of the FoV on the main scope
On Procyon PICSI2 gui is having difficulties opening and several times autoguiding has randomly lost the star
autoguiding fixed, the hall sensor on PICSI was dead, and subsequently replaced
Procyon capture taken, went to OJ 287 it is very dim
unable to verify we were seeing GrW +708247 so slew to MKN 431
