Another night of predicted good seeing, which was more or less correct. Observed with the 20-inch again from 10:30pm to midnight. I observed one super close CDSA piar, but have exhausted my CDSA and movement pair lists for this part of the sky -- fall weather usually being the clearest and with best seeing -- so I observed from a red star list. Most appeared light yellow or orange to me, though the color was stronger with more magnification. I used the 7-inch mask for most of these as the star images were much cleaner. While the colored stars are pretty to look at, my descriptions are a rather uninspired record of their color only.
AGC 10 AB: 508; 1270x: Light orange unequal stars, hairline split 1016x and up. Wide fainter blue star nearby to west (STF 2570 AB-C). No Gaia parallax data for the primary but given their closeness an orbit can be tried.
