In afternoon or during dinner: - Install 56/II grating setup - CONFIRM THAT THE GRATING TILT IS SET TO EXACTLY 22.90 - check focus - obtain at least 10 Zero frames - obtain at least 5, preferably 10, flat-field frames (projector or dome) Try to get a few good twilight spectra at the beginning (or end) of the night, but only if it would not interfere with observations of target stars. NOTE: Don't observe any target at airmass > 2.0, and preferably no higher than ~1.8. Just skip them, since the spectra won't be useful anyway. NOTE NOTE NOTE: Highest priority: NGC 6026 Don't observe tonight S CrA Observe twice: beginning of night at about 2330 CST LSIV -12.111 Try to observe two times: at or before 20:00 local time and again at about 0:00 local time NGC 6891 Try to observe two times: at or before about 20:00 local time at about 22:30 local time PHL 932 Try to observe two times: at about 23:45 local time at about 03:00 local time Make sure to observe the 1++ and 1+ targets. During the rest of the night, select targets according to the listed priorities. There are more targets than can be observed during the night. Any targets can be observed several times during the night, separated by ~2 hours or more.

Charts for many objects were prepared at telescope in February 2003 and should be available. Cmp: 1 means take comparison spectrum only before target exposures; 2 means before and after
