              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
Thin to medium clouds.  Seeing and humidity varied with wind direction.
During evening checkout an error in dismounting NICFPS caused delays in
getting DIS mounted, but with help from Bill we were able to get going
right around sunset.  There were a few harmonic hums from the azimuth
while tracking targets in the southwest, but it never got bad enough to
stop tracking.  Everything else worked very well.
