              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
I needed to do a nicfps expose init on nicfps, it was showing black/white bars. This fixed the issue.
Training M.Omiya for remote observations tonight.
Altitude axis did not move at start of test slews.  re-init the alt axis and this fixed the issue.
My JH01 observer was feeling tired and sick at 00:10. I offered to do her observations tonight since she was not feeling well. She gave her first 4hrs to the 1st half program.  I observed the last two hours of her program.
No other problems tonight.
