I worked the second half of Friday night (17/18 December) with the echelle on the 3.5-meter, and despite not-very-good seeing, it's very good to have the telescope back. My heartfelt thanks to everyone at the site and elsewhere for their work and getting us back into operations. We (Russet at the telescope and myself remotely) used the fast tertiary rotation capacity to get a SPIcam image for identification and acquisition in a cluster field and then rotating back to the program instrument, echelle. It works very well, and it's much faster for confident identification than paddling around in a cluster with a 1.2 by 0.8 arcminute field.
