Lardo_5B	M2 SGB	blue_grating	2hr15min	seeing variable, ~1.0" for 2 exposures and 1.2"-1.5" for the other, probably because of passing clouds.

Hunt_8G	GRB080325	HKspec, 200H+K	20min	we are not sure that the target is within the slit
Sozzeti	WASP33	HKspec, 200H+K	-	we are not able to do the mask acquisition because the field does not seem to match the mask - after 1hr of effort we abort
Turatto_07A	SN2009ip	HKspec	-	target too low and we loose guide star in one offset - abort
Cresci_28A	DSF2237-A	H, 210_zJHK	1hr	flat +arc +Tell
La Franca_A1	2MSXJ506+32	zJspec, 200 H+K	1hr	flat + arc +Tell - COMPLETED
Hunt_8A	GRB020127	HKspec, 200H+K	-	target too faint to identify in the acq image - we need a blind offset -abort

Lardo_5B	M2 RGB	blue_grating	1hr	target completed - seeing within specs
Lardo_5B	M2 SGB	blue_grating	45min	repeated 1exp because the first night there were clouds during the second exposure - COMPLETED
Standard	bd284211	blue_grating
Gilli C	2XMMJ22	red_grating	45min	we had to close dome for humidity after the 3rd exposure

Gilli 18C	2XMMJ22	red-grating	1h 30m	we repeated the whole program because the seeing is hight - considered COMPLETE
Standard	Feige 110	red-grating
Fritz 4B	GG94	dual-grating	2h 40m	we took an extra exposure because of seeing being slightly out of specs - considered COMPLETE
Standard	G191B2b	dual-grating / red-grating
Giallongo 27A	MS0015	dual channel	15m	blue side jumping again - we had to close for humidity

Project_RUN	Objects	Filter	ExpTime	Notes
Standard	Hipp104320	H/210_zJHK		We repeat the telluric acquisition and integration because the spectrum appear too faint
Cresci 18A	DSF2237a	H/210_zJHK	1h10m	flat+arc+Tell
Sozzetti 22B	WASP33b	HKspec/200_H+K	6hr	While the target is transiting, the flexure compensation cannot handle how fast the rotator is moving - COMPLETE

Hunt_8A	GRB020127			keep trying to point to the target but we cannot guide because of clouds - impossible to observe
La Franca A3	NGC3079	zJspec, 200 H+K,	1hr	problems with the position angle, flat+arc+Tell - COMPLETE
