Dear ASCA users, The observation of SGR 1900+14 (PI: K. Hurley, 80 ksec) once allocated on April 20 was replaced with 2EG J1835+5919 (PI: J. Halpern, 80 ksec). In addition a 20-ksec observation of G 70.7+1.2 (PI: Vashist) is included in the same span. This is due to the different visibility efficiency of the two targets. The observation of SGR 1900+14 is shifted to the next week. F.
