Craig Wheeler, \non behalf of the LIGO Hobby-Eberly Telescope Response (LIGHETR) team, \nreport the spectroscopic observation of the field of S190426c (GCN \n#24208) with the VIRUS IFU array. We sampled a prioritized list of 5 \ngalaxies from the GLADE catalog that overlapped with the LIGO \nprobability map and the observable pupil of the HET. The resulting data \ncube covers the wavelength 350 to 550 nm with a resolving power of 750. \nThe effective limiting magnitude in the B band was 22 magnitudes. Each \nfield is 50x50 arc seconds. We observed, in order, galaxies:\n305.064514+47.343445\n306.223328+56.174004\n310.997894+53.242306\n306.510681+55.881222\n309.586700+59.537640\nWe note that 310.997894+53.242306 is a known AGN. We find no obvious \nevidence of an optical transient. A more detailed report of the results \nwill be submitted later.",
