The nebulae NGC 6992-6995 and NGC 6960 (the east and west parts of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant) have been photographed in the 5007 A forbidden O III line with an electron image intensifier having a fiber-optics input an; output. In addition, NGC 6960 has been observed in the 6717 A, 6732 A forbidden S II doublet. The images of NGC 6960 in the different lines show certain distinctions in their fine structure which may reflect shock heating to temperatures corresponding to the different ionization potentials of the O(++) and S(+) ions. The fiber-optics intensifier has various shortcomings compared with the type FKT-1 contact image tube with a mica window.
