              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
GS04 observers:  M.Bentz, B.Ou-Yang, E.Manne-Nicholas
Had a PU03 ToO from 01:00 to 03:00
When switching to PU03, dcam was reading the 5.0Slit mask for all slits (not noticed earlier because GS04 uses 5.0").  This cost PU03 0.1 hours.
Night was fairly cloudy, but seeing was pretty good.  For the most part, we were able to punch through the clouds and it was no problem.
No issues with altitude tracking and slewing.
