120X-NGC6316 is unreslolved. A modeately bright disk, ever so slightly brighter
in the center. 

220X-NGC6316 is still unreslolved with a couple of twinkels when jiggling the
scope. 3 field stars form a stream just below the south.

272X-NGC6316 remains unresolved. Seeing is limiting resolution.

Star # TYC6824-303-1; 10.88 mag superimposed on the glob's disk should be easy, but it was not observed.
