---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===---

Another uneventful night.  We had a variety of clouds throughout the night, 
delaying exposure for about 20 minutes on one occassion.  

On Cart 4A tcc timed out while slewing and a scale change timed out.

endNight gave the following error:

struct EXP - length mismatch between typedef and input
Offending line: EXP 406337 Flat 5007 good pt_stare 406337 240.0
54869.08484 6.4004 13.0562 user Dome 02:02:43.06
Error: Trouble in param2Chain with args=/astrolog/54869/mdReport-54869.par

verifyMtFliesOnDisk $mjd /verbose  gave the above error.

Also got this error:

---=== PROBLEMS IN DETAIL ===---

Telescope focus check:
---------------------
Cartridge 2 w/ MARVELS pre-selection plate used.
Collimate indicates the focus is set for an air temp between 3 and 4 C. That 
should be close enough to be in the black at the end of the night (maybe). So 
I will leave the focus alone.
