12:18 execMODS mods.21.4.obs mods1r.20150323.0038 only one spectrum AND TO BE REPEATED!!!

• seeing 1'' at the beginning of the integration
• both the last MODS and LBC integration are to be repeated!!! They are pretty much the same as flats! Sun is rising!

12:18 Luci Calibration

• Piconcelli B1 FLAT (51-61) too many counts (30.000) so we set the exposure time to 7 sec and repeat the calibration
• Piconcelli B1 FLAT (62-71)
• Piconcelli A4 FLAT (74-83) these are flat with good counts (10.000-20.000)
• Piconcelli A4 ARC (84-87)
• Piconcelli B1-B2 ARC (88-91)
