Craig Markwardt writes: Here is a very brief report on the scans of 17 Jun 1999. Not much to report on these cross scans (primarily in E-W direction). * SLX 1735-269 has dropped again, this time from about 160 ct/s/5PCU to 55 ct/s. * XTE J1710-281 is near about 15 ct/s. This is discouraging, since we stare at it next week for two orbits. We stare at 1710 on Monday and 1819 on Thursday, two orbits (=6500 s) each. Craig
