Ops Evening Mid-Shift Summary
   IFO is not locked. 

   Between the maintenance activities, problems with a swinging BSC-9 ISI (#23293), and a nine large EQs in Chile, locking has been unsuccessful. 

   After the motion of BSC-9 settled down, I did an ALS realignment, and was able to get the IFO to DRMI_1F, before the first two Chilean EQs (mag 6.9 & mag 6.6) arrived. Low frequency seismic activity jumped up to over 10 um/s, microseism was over 1 um/s. 

   There were at least nine large earthquakes in Chile (mag 6.9 to mag 4.8) within a one hour period. Things are starting to calm down. Will give it a bit more time to settle down and them will redo initial alignment. 

   At least the wind is just a light breeze (4 -7 mph).
