Special Instructions:
We request the Blue camera and the WD_400 grating
configuration for our program.  In detail, this is
the setup we request:

---------------------------------------------------
Camera:  Blue
CCD ROI Mode: Spectroscopic, 2x2
CCD Read: 200kHz ATTN 2
Mask: 1-arcsec slit
Grating: 400lines/mm ("SYZY_400")
Set Mode: 400_WD (400lines/mm, set for c. 3500A-7500A,
          and scattered light feature moved to c. 3600A)
---------------------------------------------------

The main target list can be found here:
/public_calib/DESCalibObsRuns/SOAR-Sep2018/Targets/WhiteDwarfCandidates/ssawdcat.desfootprint.round13.goodman_targetlist.txt
The corresponding Finding Chart URL can be found here:
/public_calib/DESCalibObsRuns/SOAR-Sep2018/Targets/WhiteDwarfCandidates/ssawdcat.desfootprint.round13.html
Both will likely be updated in the days before the start
of the run.

We will be observing remotely from Fermilab.  Since this
program uses an almost identical setup as for our gravitational
wave optical counterpart target-of-opportunity follow-up
program (PI:  Marcelle Soares-Santos), we will also take
the opportunity during this run to train some observers
for that program.  (The observers being trained will also
be observing remotely with us at Fermilab.)
