Spectra (range 320-1000 nm) were obtained on Sept. 2.3-2.5 UT with the SuperNova Integral Field Spectrograph on the University of Hawaii 2.2-m telescope, showing 2007hk to be 3 weeks past maximum, 2007hn to be around maximum, 2007ho to be one month past maximum, and 2007hp to be a few days past maximum. The tabulated R-band discovery magnitudes and astrometry below were derived from comparison with the USNO-B1.0 catalogue. SN 2007 UT R.A. (2000.0) Decl.
