| |
| **Also, there is to be absolutely NO COOKING OR COFFEE MAKING in the remote observing area.** | To get swipe access to the observing rooms, talk to the administrative staff at least a couple weeks in advance of when you need it (the authorization process is sometimes real slow). |

| To get your Cal ID card coded for the entrance to Room 11, you must bring you Cal ID to the Keys, Space, and Heath & Safety person (currently [[magtibay@astro.berkeley.edu|Robert Magtibay]], 601-C Campbell Hall). | |

| In the basement of Campbell Hall (Room 11) there is a four-headed setup for Keck remote observing. It also has a Polycom setup, a normal telephone, and a large, nice Mac nearby. You must have the Remote Observing username and password to log into the four-headed computer. The login for the Mac is your usual Astro cluster username and password. | There are three observing rooms on the ground floor of Campbell. You need keycard access to enter. Each station is equipped with several monitors and a polycom for talking to the telescope operator on the summit. All rooms have a couch (146 has the comfiest) and room 144 has a fridge, coffee maker, and microwave, but please keep it all clean! Bathrooms are in the hallway; remember your keycard so you can get back into the observing room! |

| If no one is using the Keck Remote Observing setup (mentioned above) for Keck observations, then you can schedule to use that setup for the Lick 3m Shane telescope (although this is still in beta testing as of Summer 2008). There is also a three-headed setup for the Lick 1m Nickel telescope. | All of the Lick telescopes (Shane, Nickel, APF) can also be controlled from the same remote ops rooms as Keck, though usage priority is assigned based on aperture diameter (not first-come-first-serve). |
