              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Shelden
Night was clear, somewhat windy, with mediocre seeing throughout.
Had a "hiccup" on the NA2 guider, but it seems to have fixed itself after a few minutes of fighting with it.  Called Joe for help.
Cleaned out obs level filter cabinet and updated database.
Spicam focus immediately fails with:
Failed: unbound method initAll() must be called with BaseFocusScript instance as first argument (got ScriptClass instance instead)
 Around 00:15
