               ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: J.Coughlin
 A great night. Clear skies all night with good seeing for most of
 the night, though it degraded a little towards morning.
 Echelle pointing was possibly a little bit off - one or two stars
 were just on the field of view when slewed to. Other than that
 no telescope problems.
