High-resolution spectra of the chromospheric Na I D lines, Ca I 4227, Mg I 4571, 5167, and 5172, the Ca II H and K resonance and IR 8542.144 and 8662.170 lines, and H-alpha and H-beta, all observed simultaneously at the AAT, are presented. These data are presented as the observational basis for the self-consistent, semiempirical modeling of the outer photospheres and chromospheres of the target stars. Stellar activity is found in the low-chromosphere lines as core-filling and, in some stars, as line-broadening. Integrated fluxes are derived from the difference spectra, formed by subtracting quiet from active spectra, in the Ca II H and K resonance and IR 8542 and 8662 lines and in H-alpha, which are presented as chromospheric activity indicators. All the activity indices exhibit strong correlations, with the exception of the equivalent widths of H-alpha and H-beta, which are found to be relatively poor activity discriminators.
