MDM Trouble Report for 2001 Dec 25

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Ben Sugerman (Columbia)
Instrument: MDM8K

Problem(s) Encountered:
Now the TCS power will not work!!!  When the MDM8K went out about
an hour ago, I put the telescope in stow position to play
with the camera.  All I did was turn  track  to OFF so it would
stay put.  Then I ate some food.  when I came back, the 
black TCS box (DFM engineering, model 70) had no power.  It will
only stay on if I hold down the START button, so I have to hold
it down to do anything.   

parenthetically, I think there are gremlins or elves doing this
to me to get me in trouble when no one can help...
