Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 2762
18" (2/14/10): at 280x this difficult galaxy appeared extremely faint, very small, possibly elongated though too faint to determine an orientation, 20" diameter. Required averted and concentration to just briefly glimpse (repeated a few times) this object 2.9' WNW of NGC 2767. First of four in a group with NGC 2767, NGC 2769 and NGC 2771.
17.5" (4/5/97): not found but I appeared to be observing partially in a tree and 5 hrs past the meridian! Located 2.9' NW of NGC 2767.
