              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist:    J.Huehnerhoff
Great clear night with moderate seeing the entire night.
The DIS slitviewer shutter continued to have problems till around midnight
when the temperature warmed to above 0C.  Stable seeing first half allowed
for the shutter problems to have a minimal impact on science.
Trouble with an APOLLO power supply caused reallocation of time.
Scheduled time above not changed but OBS time above that was not used by
APOLLO added to PU08 (which continued to observe).
User taking cals till 0800MT.
