              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
Took sky flats with ARCTIC and tested shutter window.  No problems detected.
The r filter was offset for one exposure.  Setting the filter wheel back to home (./filter_motor -h) seems to have solved the problem.
Exposures 0173-0187 were incorrectly labeled as PG2336.  These exposures are actually PG2331.
I think I was slewing for PG0231_u_0203.fits and possibly 0232. I took a new set of three exposures (0206-0208).
Did not take a full set of exposures for all filters on PG2213 0249-0254.  Star was at too high of an airmass (+3).
PG2336_z 0282-0284 were incorrectly taken with a 5 sec exposure.  0285-0287 are correctly taken at 10sec.
Successful APOLLO session.
TUI froze and had to be restarted.
DD05 had their tcam images stop updating at t0408 but it continued to guide and was viewable from Obs1.  They logged out of TUI completely and logged back in and the issue was fixed.
