Steve's Notes

===== NGC 3714 18" (4/9/05): fairly faint, small, round, 25" diameter, fairly high surface brightness (like the core of a larger galaxy), moderate concentration though no nucleus. 18" (5/30/03): fairly faint, small, round, 0.4' diameter, weak concentration. Appears similar to the core of a larger galaxy. NGC 3713 lies 13' SSW. 17.5" (4/9/99): very faint, very compact galaxy ~20" in diameter, brightens somewhat to center. Picked up at 100x along with brighter NGC 3713 located 13' SSW.
