              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: N.Ule
Had some early problems with truss lamps, followed procedures in the wiki to
get them responsive again.  First problem: could not access lamps, solution:
entered "tlamps status" into TCC.  Second problem: Could not turn lamps on
or off, solution: logged into tron and entered "lamps restart" to reset the
lamp daemon.  Worked fine after all this.
Observers had no trouble except that the seeing was poor for the first half
of the night.
