A new method of microwave optical double resonance (MODR), referred to as microwave detected MODR, is used here to assign the very weak visible overtone band of ammonia at 6450 A. Preliminary results based on the assignment of 190 lines of the spectrum show that the band is an overlap of both parallel and perpendicular bands to levels best described as the A and E components of the local mode states with five quanta of N-H stretch in one bond. Rotational assignment of this overtone band will allow planetary astronomers to use this band, seen in the reflection spectra of Saturn and Jupiter, to determine the atmospheric temperatures.
