[vsnet-chat 1051] SV Sge



Since there has been some question about this carbon star field, I checked
it last night, and got the following results (all coordinates J2000):

star      RA           DEC          V    verr  B-V    bverr
SV Sge  19:08:11.77  +17:37:41.2  15.639 0.02  2.423  0.04
comp    19:08:11.33  +17:37:26.5  14.800 0.02  0.831  0.02

(Simbad coordinates for SV Sge:  19:08:11.8   +17:37:39)
(Hipparcos coordinates:          19:08:11.78  +17:37:41.2)
(observation date for the above photometry:  HJD 51010.8365)

The 149 comparison star is therefore about 16 arcsec SW of the variable, and
so difficult to confuse if a reasonable finding chart is used.
