Looked to be
a real nut with a
close 13th mag companion. And it is! Really difficult target. The WDS
number
are from 1968, apparently, no one else has had luck with this one for
almost 40
years! Can't say that my observation are very good either, the
secondary seems
to just be a smear of light to the north of the primary. Poorly measured, 0.66
sec at 011.2 deg PA.
