Repeatability of parameter estimates for the subsample of 15 stars with two observations. The data points mark the estimated temperatures and radii found by applying the Newton et al. (2015) EW relations to the first observations (circles) and second observations (squares) of each star. The colors differentiate between observations made using SpeX on the IRTF (blue) and TSPEC on the Palomar 200″ (red). The thick gray lines connect the two classifications for each star. The cluster of points near 4350 K and 0.7 ﹩{R}_{\odot }﹩ contains five K7 dwarfs observed twice each. The white box indicates the boundaries of our cool dwarf sample: ﹩{T}_{\mathrm{eff}}\lt 4800﹩ K, ﹩{R}_{\star }\lt 0.8\,{R}_{\odot }﹩.
