Trancho, Gemini Observatory; T. H. Kerr, Joint Astronomy Centre; and W. Golisch, D. Griep, and P. Sears, University of Hawaii, report further infrared spectroscopy of V1187 Sco (cf. IAUC 8382). The H I line strengths measured with IRTF/BASS increased until Aug. 8 UT, when they peaked and then began a gradual decline. A higher-spectral-resolution 7-13-micron data set obtained with Gemini North (+ 'Michelle') on Aug. 11.25 revealed many H I lines but did not confirm the presence of the previously-reported, unidentified, infrared features at 8.6 and 11.2 microns (IAUC 8382). Those two features have now been shown to be due to H I 10-7 and 9-7, respectively. Additional BASS magnitudes on Aug. 11.18: L = 4.3; M = 3.9; narrowband N (10.5 microns) = 2.7.
