L1212309:41:05Changing dye in the middle of a run may have caused some1EG
L1212309:42:57instability, the tuning is changing at least. This has probably1EG
to do with thenew dye solution tempereture. Will wait and see
how things develop before I do anything. The measured wave-
length should drop as the dye heats up.
