In afternoon or during dinner: - Install 26/Ic grating setup - CONFIRM THAT THE GRATING TILT IS SET TO EXACTLY 15.55 - 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. SPECIAL NOTES: NOTE: Don't observe any target at airmass > 1.8, and preferably no higher than ~1.6. Just skip them, since the spectra won't be useful anyway. Make sure to observe as many of the 1+ targets as possible. During the rest of the night, select targets according to the listed priorities. There are more targets than can be observed. The targets marked "close pair" are especially interesting, since they are within several arcmin of each other, and should get high priority. RA & Dec: all coordinates are accurate to better than 1"; charts can be generated necessary using LEDAS or DSS.
