Stupid of me that I didn't check against the original source but this kind of errors happen one time in a million..: It turns out that the magnitude is V= 9.28 instead of 9.68. This was a typo from the GCPD compiler so this star can now be safely used as a comparison star! Try to put this in one line and see the scanned page that allow us to see the light... http://adsbit.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-iarticle_query?journal=PASP.&year=1958 &volume=..70&letter=.&db_key=AST&page_ind=698&plate_select=NO&data_type=GIF& type=SCREEN_GIF Regards, Sebastian
