Does anyone know how good the baffling is on the 3.5 meter telescope? That is, how close to the moon can I point the telescope before moonlight reflected/scattered off components of the telescope and enclosure starts to increase my background counts significantly above the sky level? (My immediate interest is for planning a near-IR run; the moon will be about 20 degrees from one source I'm considering observing.)
