                               ACTIVITY LOG
(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
The telescope was opened at 19:45.
Dan Zucker and Ted Wyder were the observers for UW09, using DIS. They used the
slit viewer to help obtain spectra of their objects.  They seemed very pleased
with the outcome of the evening. Almost the entire evening, we had clear skies.
There were two incidents of a small amount of trailing, and, as a fix, I ran
an "axis init" from TCC, and a "resync" from the mcnode.  Then I had Dan
reslew, and everything cleared up.  No runaways to speak of.
I was the observer for the Lens Monitoring run, and I obtained quite a bit
of data from objects 2237 and 2345.
