The nucleus of NGC 2346 (=PK 215 + 3°1; α = 7h06m49.S7, δ = −0°43′29″, 1950) was recently discovered by Kohoutek (1982a,b) to be an eclipsing binary with a deep (~ 2.m2) minimum in the visible and an orbital period of 17.2 ± 0.4 days. We observed NGC 2346 with the IUE on 4 occasions between 1982, Feb. 24 and May 13 and obtained 6 SWP and 4 LWR low dispersion spectrograms. These were taken at different phases, using the large entrance aperture centered on the nucleus.
