23 november 2022 struves

Set up with the 20-inch but the seeing did not live up to expectations, likely because of all the ground cooling after a relatively warm day.  Masked down to 7-inches and covered some ground in and around Pisces.  Observed from 8-11pm, so a lot covered.

STF 24 AB: 178; 140x: White stars, well separated, 1 Dm.  WDS claims it is physical, and while there is only 752 AU weighted separation, 2.0+1.7 Msol, and the radial velocity delta 0.5 is less than the escape velocity 2.9, it may not be binary as the parallax ranges do not overlap, -22%.
00h 18m 30.59s +26° 08' 25.1" P.A. 247.00 sep 5.0 mag 7.79,8.44 Sp A2 dist. 154.8 pc (504.96 l.y.)

STF 17 AB: 178; 140x: Near equal wide pair.  WDS says it's physical, and while there is 18% parallax range overlap, it has a very wide 9,119 AU weighted separation, 2.8+1.8 Msol, and the radial velocity delta 2.6 is much more than the escape velocity 0.9, so it is not binary.
00h 16m 32.03s +29° 17' 36.6" P.A. 29.00 sep 26.7 mag 8.39,9.83 Sp K0

STF 73 AB: 178; 285x: Near equal, yellow-white A and blue-white B, well separated.  WDS grade 2 orbit, 167.5-year period, it is NNW now, and will reach due N by 2045.  No Gaia parallax data.  
00h 54m 58.02s +23° 37' 42.4" P.A. 335.60 sep 1.2 mag 6.12,6.54 Sp K1IV dist. 37.98 pc (123.89 l.y.)
STF 49 AB: 178; 145x: White A and 3 Dm yellow B, well separated.  WDS uncertain, but there is 62% overlap of the parallax ranges, only 228 AU weighted separation, 1.0+0.6 Msol, and the radial velocity delta 2.0 is less than the escape velocity 3.5, so it is very likely binary and needs an orbit.
00h 40m 47.49s -07° 13' 57.5" P.A. 320.00 sep 8.6 mag 7.12,9.98 Sp G1V dist. 26.5 pc (86.44 l.y.)

STF 35 AB: 178; 145x: Faint pair, nearly 1 Dm, fairly well separated.  WDS says not physical, but there is 9% parallax range overlap, only 862 AU weighted separation, 0.9+0.8 Msol, and the radial veloctiy delta 0.3 is less than the escape velocity 1.9, so it might be binary and needs another orbit try.
00h 31m 36.57s -02° 02' 21.2" P.A. 267.00 sep 8.8 mag 10.50,10.87 Sp K0

STF 14 AB: 178; 145x: Wide 2 Dm.  WDS says parallax indicates non-physical, but in fact there is 32% overlap of the parallax ranges, a pretty wide 4,138 AU weighted separation, 2.1+1.4 Msol, and the radial velocity delta 1.4 is a bit more than the escape velocity 1.2.  There is some possibility it is binary and needs to be checked.
00h 15m 48.93s -11° 59' 24.7" P.A. 237.00 sep 14.5 mag 8.90,10.85 Sp A0V dist. 1724.14 pc (5624.14 l.y.)

STF3065 AB: 178; 145x: Wide, 1 Dm, faint pair.  WDS says proper motion indicates physical, but there is no overlap of the parallax ranges, -35%, it is not binary.

STF 4 AB: 178; 145x: Near equal white stars, well separated.  WDS says proper motion indicates physical, and there is 70% parallax range overlap, 369 AU weighted separation, 1.0+1.0 Msol, and the radial velocity delta is 0, escape velocity 3.0, so it certainly is binary and needs an orbit.
00h 09m 51.65s +08° 27' 11.4" P.A. 276.00 sep 5.2 mag 9.51,9.60 Sp G6V+G7V dist. 76.28 pc (248.83 l.y.)

STF 21 AB: 178; 145x: Faint pair, significant delta, easily separated.  Lies in an attractive triangle of brighter whte stars.  WDS says proper motion indicates physical, and there is 30% parallax range overlap, 1,344 AU weighted separation, 1.2+1.1 Msol, and the radial velocity delta 0.5 is less than the escape velocity 1.8, so it is likely binary and needs an orbit.
