              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
o5:29, I changed exp time on the dis slitviewer, while guiding on a field star.  After it updated it changed stars (actually a bad choice object off screen) it was guiding on.  Stopped guider and re-selected proper guide star.  See dis slit images 469 - 473
No problems tonight.
SPIcam heater turned back to low after observing tonight.
