                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: W.Ketzeback
 Rain, high humidity, dust and thick cloud cover all night is the entire story.
 I never opened. There was some difficulties at instrument change time with
 GRIM that required several cycles of power and  software to recover (see
 PR# 2003126)
