Some preliminary results of a rocket experiment, which utilized collimated Bragg Crystal spectrometers to map solar X-ray line emissions from He-like ions of oxygen and neon are presented. The two spectrometers used KAP crystals with a common field of view 1.7’ FWHM in the narrow dimension. The spectrometers were scanned in wavelength once each second to observe the resonance, intersystem and forbidden lines of OVII and NeIX.
