Pointing:  good

Tracking:  The 80 sec exposures (B filter) are mostly trailed, some bad enough that I deleted them from the stacks.    The 60 sec V and 30 sec I exposures are all good.

Signal:  Nothing seems saturated.  Good SNR's in targets and comps, all filters.

Recommend:  Exposures of 80 seem a bit too long for this system, but 60 seconds works fine.  I suggest using the same number of images for B, but using 60 sec exposures

Comment:  No transforms yet.

Transforms?

...still no transforms for BSM_S2.  

I have several images from this system.

BSM_S2 tracking

The tracking seems to be getting worse.

Please decrease the B filter exposures for GU Sgr and ASAS-RCB-8 from 80s to 60s and increase the number of images from 5 to 7.

Thanks,

Phil
