     In re the naming scheme for the LBQS objects, Arne is right:

From the <<Dictionary of Nomenclature of Celestial Objects>>
(Lortet, Borde, Ochsenbein, 1994, A&AS, 107, 193) (Last CDS update: 07-May-1999)
=========================================================================
LBQS    (Large Bright QSO Survey)
 Write: <<LBQS HHMM+DDMMA>>  N=1182
 Object [QSO]   (SIMBAD class: QSO = Quasar)
  Note: The reference 1995AJ....109.1498H groups the
        previous lists (N=1055).
        note than some designations changed between the initial
        references and 1995AJ....109.1498H, due to more accurate
        position determinations.
  Stat: is COMPLETELY incorporated in Simbad
   Ref: =1987AJ.....94.1423F
     by FOLTZ C.B., CHAFFEE F.H.Jr, HEWETT P.C., MacALPINE G.M., TURNSHEK
           D.A., WEYMANN R.J., ANDERSON S.F.    Astron. J., 94, 1423-1460 (1987)
        >> The APM QSO survey. I. Initial MMT results.
        ->      <LBQS HHMM+DDMMA> N=201

     ...etc.
