                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialists: G.Saurage
Clear skies, moderate to good seeing (2nd half).
CU folks made prior arrangements to divide up the night into four
observing periods (CU03, CU04, DD04, then CU04).
DIS slitviewer produced the sudden “faux lamps” as it has in the past (see
dcam images 180-184), restarting the nubs fixed it. No time lost.
No real problems. Echelle seems to be functioning normally as well.
