              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
Users DIS slitviewer was not updating.  I had him log out of TUI and restart it.  This did not fix the problem.  He said it said downloading but did not display the image on his screen.  Running Linux -4.4.0 Debian and TUI 2.5.1.  User though it might be an issue with a python upgrade as TUI worked a few months ago on the machine.  He sent me finder charts and I aligned the star for him.  There were only a few objects for his program.
We could see "smoke clouds" from a fire a hundred miles or so to our NorthWest at sunset.  I could smell the smoke at 01:10 when I changed instruments.
