Between David Elmore, Darryl and I, we tried moving RA around to try acquiring sun, tried to determine if RA or Dec motors were running, tried to determine if light was getting to Cohu by removing the RG9 filter, and between keyboard crashes, Spar power resets, and other roadblocks, we finally got the image by tweeking the dec around. Once we got the error values, David calculated the ha_switch_offset and dec_switch_offset values and we edited lowl.h and recompiled. Almost heightened the suspense by finishing just as the fog rolled in, but a hole in the fog revealed that the fix was successful.
