Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 5682
17.5" (6/27/98): extremely faint. very small, round, ~20" diameter. Forms a close pair with NGC 5683 1.3' ESE. A mag 14 star is 2.1' S of center. I only observed the core and missed the low surface brightness arms. The pair is located ~8' SW of NGC 5689 within a group of 5 galaxies.
13" (5/26/84): extremely faint, near visual threshold, no details. A mag 14 star is 2' S. Located 8.5' SW of NGC 5689 in a group.
