TOM2



A clear night so I am getting a little work done on TOM2.

There are still the mystery rings around stars with the I lens.   The lens 
shield does not help.  I will have to make up an I lens out of the old 
lenses to see if there is something wrong with the lenses.  The V lens 
looks fine, so this is not very likely.  It is slow work without a good 
bench setup to test things.  One has to wait for a clear night.

The system is getting close to being lined up.  I still have to get the RA 
adjusted, but I took enough data that I can probably get it adjusted 
closely during the day.

Meanwhile, TOM1 is just running and appears to be taking good data.  Once I 
get things working it does not appear to require a lot of effort to keep 
the system going.
