              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
Dataq needed a restart via tron during checkout.
We had a great night! No clouds, no wind, no dust, little humidity, and good seeing and boy did we need it.  WY01 were looking at faint quasars, so faint that it took me probably 15 min to identify their target (and that was only by using manual guiding on the field and hoping for some lucky seeing).  But, once we finally found it, things were great!
