              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: N.Ule
First two observers had no difficulties with their observations, third
observer was using agile at a low altitude, had poor seeing as a
result.  Also the secondary focus had to be changed by a large degree.
 Nicfps was not responding, had to restart the software in the server
room.  After that it worked fine for the final observers.
Sky was clear all night.  Observers ended early to avoid brightening sky.
