A pair of equal magnitude
stars, almost mag 9. Pretty faint, I only got an elongation at low power,
just barely split at mid power anddefinately split at high power.

TYC 2 confirmed my suspicions
that the mag for both was a tad on the bright side, giving 8.7 for the
8.0, and 8.8 for the 8.1. Resolved at 120x.
