 Had to reset DIS R300 grating. Spectra was on the top right corner of
the CCD instead of centered. Pulled R300 out and set back in, making
sure to push it into both set pins, problem solved.  Grating was
calibrated 24hrs ago....  Did anyone take out the R300 grating today?
 Alt Velocity Scale: -633.35

  During a 'sucker-hole' we tested the SPIcam focus script. It took ~6
min to run each time, but seemed to work quite well. We did not test the
"Find" button. Sucker-hole then collapsed on us.
 Never opened for science due to weather.
