NGC 3722
24" (3/9/13): faint to fairly faint, small, round, 18" diameter, fairly low even surface brightness. Brightest of four in a 4' string, including extremely faint MCG -01-30-006 = PGC 35753 just 0.7' NNE. PGC 35753 appeared extremely faint to very faint, round, just 6" diameter!
18" (5/12/07): very faint, very small, round, 15" diameter, low even surface brightness. First of three in a 4' string with NGC 3724 1.8' NE and MCG -01-30-008 4' NE. NGC 3730 (MCG -01-30-003) lies 6.4' NNW and NGC 3732 10' SSW.
17.5" (4/5/97): extremely faint, very small, round, 15" diameter. First of close trio with MCG -01-30-007 = NGC 3724 (uncertain ID) 1.8' NE and MCG -01-30-008 4.0' NE. Also nearby is MCG -01-30-003 (possibly NGC 3730) 6.4' NNW and a two anonymous galaxies 9' and 10' NNE. Located 10' NNE of NGC 3732. The galaxies in this group have uncertain NGC designations due to poor positions by Leavenworth.
