                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
 The night was clear except for a brief period of orographic clouds
 from 02:30-03:00.  Seeing was moderate.  The telescope behaved well,
 happier with the warmer weather.  There was one hard crash of the
 NA2 guider which required a power cycle.  This took a while to clear
 up do to a brain failure on my part, but it didn't cost any
 observing time.

     used is north=0 degrees, east=90 degrees.  The dust count is
     particles > 1u per 0.1 cubic feet.
