------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: B. Ketzeback, J.Huehnerhoff
Another humid night with moderate cloud cover.
Ran in dome point models to exercise drive system.  Ran into multiple
servo erros on azimuth.  One around UT 05:40 and the other at 06:09 (78
degrees).  Stop axis then Estop corrected the error.  Each error required
the restart of the pointing model meaning that the third run did not get
completed due to instrument change over but was nearly completed without
errors.
