              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
dcam images 154-155, 164,167, 170 showed the vertical lines.  We were taking short exposres (0.5-1 sec). It was really windy tonight, could that be messing with any connections??
Wind got pretty high tonight, reaching 37 mph.  Our observer needed a northern target and it was too low to track safely in the wind so we had to wait until the target rose in altitude, which I marked as time lost. WY03 continue to have problems with their TUI slitviewer, I sent an email to Fritz.  It's something to do with their python script but they say they don't have problems with tcam.  I needed to guide for them all half.
Alicia Aarnio completed her third night of training and is now a super star.
