              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
I turned the SPIcam heater back on to low during my checkout.
High humidity/fog kept us closed all night long
Zero'ed rotator +0.352 degrees
Russet took a bunch of SPIcam 900s darks again tonight
Russet checked internal spectrograph focus and it looked good
I gave up at 04:30 with 99.6% humidity outside.
