STF 1622 AB: 203; 205x: 2 CVn Very pretty orange and blue stars, ~3 delta mag, wide. (not physical)
12H 16M 07.55S +40° 39' 36.6" P.A. 260 SEP 12.1 MAG 5.86,8.71 SP M1III+F7V DIST. 236.41 PC (771.17 L.Y.)
HO 260 AB: 203; 205x: Close pair, nicely split ~2", ~1 delta mag, light orange stars
13H 23M 32.82S +29° 14' 15.0" P.A. 88.5 SEP 1.68 MAG 9.60,9.94 SP M0+M0.5 DIST. 18.82 PC (61.39 L.Y.)
HLM 5 AB: 203; 205x: White stars, well split ~6", about one delta. Surprised this was not discovered until 1901 by amateur British astronomer Edwin Holmes, who was a "seller of glass" and made his own 12-inch Newtonian. Apparently he was strongly opinionated and argued for the use of reflectors over refractors for their large aperture at low cost.
13H 31M 00.44S +36° 26' 27.7" P.A. 161 SEP 6.1 MAG 10.13,10.86 DIST. 32.46 PC (105.88 L.Y.)
HJ 2659: I did not split this, the secondary is too faint at 14th mag. However the field of view at 205x revealed a mini coat hanger asterism. HJ 2659A is the bright star at the center.
BU 933 AB: 203; 205x: Very fine pair, blue-white A, white B, ~3" ~2 delta.
13H 34M 34.66S +33° 08' 08.7" P.A. 23 SEP 2.8 MAG 9.04,9.69 SP F8 DIST. 116.96 PC (381.52 L.Y.)

BU 613 Ba-Bb: 203; 333x: Very fine. Suspected at 205x but needed the larger scale at 333x. Clean split, near equal faint blue stars. A third wider star same mag and color further out (this is BU 613 BC, 10.34/10.68 45.9")

STT 276 AB-C: 203; 205x: White and ~3 delta mag B, wide (need to re-observe, AB is 0.4")
14H 08M 11.84S +36° 44' 56.6" P.A. 72 SEP 9.5 MAG 8.48,10.62 SP G4III DIST. 201.21 PC (656.35 L.Y.)

STF 1848 AB: 203; 205x: White and very faint B, which is drawn out with foveal coaxing. ~3 delta and ~3". Nice
14H 27M 45.30S +32° 57' 02.9" P.A. 357 SEP 3.1 MAG 8.67,11.69 SP A3 DIST. 196.46 PC (640.85 L.Y.)

HU 904 AB: 203; 205x: B very close and faint, can see with foveal coaxing only but cant hold it direct.
14H 31M 09.93S +34° 25' 32.7" P.A. 172 SEP 1.9 MAG 10.02,11.74 SP F8

STF 1858 AB: 203; 205x: Nice white pair, ~1.5 delta mag, wide ~5". (Check the orbit on this one! Oh to be alive in the 3530s to see B whip around A)
