NOTES:

Feruglio run

We tried to put the target in the slit. According to our check, the target should be inside teh slit. This time the PA was correct. Unfortunately the seeing is very variable, spanning from 1.1" to 2.0" (but the most of time it is ~1.5"). This causes a loss of flux because the used slit is 0.5". In the frames we cannot see the spectrum of the target, also after the sly subtraction.

Around 04.55UT we had an improvment of the seeing and now we can see the spectrum of the target (after the sky subtraction).

At 05:50, suddenly the seeing increased >1.5" and then it started again to decrease slowly.
