              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Shugart
During UW05, the DIS guide cam would not take continuous images, despite
the mode of guiding used. I made manual corrections during this time,
assuming it was cloud cover after unsuccessfully re-initializing dcam.
Russet checked in toward the last hour of UW05, and called attention to
the changes Fritz had made from UT to TAI for some of the guide cams. I
called, and he soon signed in and fixed the problem, at least temporarily.
There were no more guiding issues, except for cloud cover, which ate up
some time during PU05. Other than that, there were no problems to report.
Seeing varied from 1-3" during data collection. PU05 finished cals after I
went to bed, as the program was going to take close to an hour.
