              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Townsend
During afternoon checkout I tried a few test slews from 80 down to 10 in 20 to 30 degree increments without any problems.
Overcast and humid/foggy with scattered showers all night. No snow, but we did get hail this afternoon. And we got close but we never hit 0C. We didn't open.
Telescope is parked at 80 alt again.
