              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
Found that I could only rotate Agile about 30 degrees tonight during checkout without the rotator freewheeling.  I talked to Bill and some weights that had been attached had been removed.  Bill came in and re-attached them.  Bill tested the rotator and it seemed to rotate without breaking free now.
For some reason the dcam did not read in the 5.0 arc sec slit mask.  I restarted the Nubs and this fixed it.
Agile checked out fine during my checkout but when Anjum went to take bias and darks an hour before her program, Agile was hung.  I had to power cycle it to get it to come back to life.
No problems with Agile rotator during 2nd half tonight.
