General Description

Deep N-band imaging in various filters. Faint source. Close binary (0.9").
Note that there have been notorious problems with the pointing of this fast moving
 source.
Coordinates are J2000, epoch 2005.5.
Per filter set-up, two identical OBs are submitted.
Execution of one OB lasts 1:18h.
Start the program with a detection in Siv filter to verify correct pointing.

Waiver Requests

Waiver Request 076.C-0473A.01.WAV was submitted (10.Aug) and approved
 (11.Aug).
- No finding chart submitted because the object is the only one (0.9" binary!) in
 the field.
- OBs slightly above the 1h limit
- late submission granted

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

high sensitivity observations requested. Nominal or better sensitivity
 conditions required.

Time-Critical Aspects

```
none
```

Special Execution Requirements

Start the program with a detection in Siv filter to verify correct pointing
 (marked wiht OB priority 1). After having "learned" the correct pointing towards
 the object (i.e. have detected the binary after approx 0.5h of integration) the
 correct pointing offsets should be noted for the subsequent observations. As we
 are doing "perpendicular" chop-nod patterns, the correct pointing should be in the
 lower left quadrant of the chip.
