Summary * Observed several rovibrational transitions of (HCl) 2 isotopologes in solid pH 2 ; assignments incomplete. * New polarization measurements show that ubiquitous  0.5 cm -1 splitting in 2 + region arises from in-plane (ip) and out-of-plane (oop) HCl dimers in hcp solid. * Assignment of 2 + region consistent with observation of broken symmetry transition of mixed H 35 Cl-H 37 Cl dimer. * Assignment implies tunneling splittings for v 2 =1 of H 35 Cl-H 37 Cl:  E ip = 2.250(1) cm -1,  E oop = 2.335(1) cm -1. * Assignment of weak hot-bands underway.
