Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 2411
24" (2/14/15): at 375x; fairly faint, fairly small, elongated 4:3 SW-NE, 24"x18", well concentrated with a very small bright nucleus. A mag 14 star is just west of the southwest end.
Forms a close pair with PGC 1555546 just 1.0' NE. The companion was extremely faint, 12" diameter, occasionally popped in the same position, but could not hold for any interval
17.5" (1/31/87): fairly faint, small, almost round, sharp concentration. PGC 1555546, a faint companion off the NE side, was not seen.
