    Medium Resolution Gratings
    
    With luck, these could be installed by 4Q97.  They will probably replace
    permanently the current low dispersion set since there is no easy way to
    switch out gratings at night.  Programs in progress requiring the current
    low dispersion gratings should be identified to make sure they can tolerate
    the new gratings.
    
It's worth noting that the DIS firmware/software is able to detect if
gratings are changed, and requires the user to confirm that the correct
grating parameters are loaded.
