              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
Could not use the focus script to focus NICFPS.  Error said something about nfocus is not connected???
NICFPS pressure was slightly bad tonight.  Current 8.9e-6, max 8.8e-6.  It dropped back to OK at the end of the night but ion pump was at 10 LEDs.  Email sent to Bill.
Pesky thin clouds all night, a little thicker 2nd half but not threatening and we could observe thru them.
