Description:
117X Faint fuzzy oriented almost E-W (PA=92*)Faint oval halo with elongate core without evidence of stellar nucleus.
203X - With averted vision the halo seems to extend almost to the star beyond the western ansi. The core is elongated, indistinct, fading into the halo without a definite boundry. The very center of the core is definitely brighter than the remainder. The best view is 203x for these conditions.
314X - Simular to 203X, but dimmer.
