3.5.2 SL both/LL both

Checking these boxes when designing your AORs does NOT imply that you will get a spectrum of your source with both orders of SL or both orders of LL. Selecting this box will result in your source placed exactly between the two SL subslits. As a result, if you have a point source, you will not get a spectrum of your source with either module. Instead you will get a SL1 spectrum of the sky on one side of the point source and a SL2 spectrum of the sky on the other side of the point source. The "both" box is in general used for spectral mapping observations of extended nearby sources where your extended galaxy or supernova remnant fills both subslits and you take a spectrum of half the source with one order and half the source with the other order.
