 Observing Specialist: Jack Dembicky
Opened enclosure at 20:45 tonight. Switched from SPIcam to DIS at 00:20
just as a front moved across us and had to refocus the instrument twice.
I could not slew the telescope via Remark (worked via TCC) during
checkout.  I restarted the MC which fixed the problem.
The UC04 people could not make it tonight to observe so the time was
donated to JH02 since one of the observers just happened to still be on
site from last nights observing run.  The instrument was handed over to
the JHU folks at 01:05.
