              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
I found that tcam was giving corrupted images during checkout.  I also checked TSPEC and it was giving corrupted images as well.  I started a sequence of 1000 darks with TSPEC while I tried fixing tcam. THe Leach controller may need to be power cycled, I couldn't get tcamera to recover.
ecam hung, observer noted around 08:57, but it may have been hung for a while from the guide monitor.  I had to restart the ecamera and ecam to get it working again.
