Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 6843
17.5" (9/23/95): A very unimpressive scattered group of about two dozen stars mag 11-14 in a 8' region. Generally elongated N-S in a string with a separate line of six stars at the north end oriented E-W. There is one close isolated double star and the fainter stars are at the south end of the string. Appears to be a very weak asterism of no special interest except follows NGC 6840 by ~10' in the same field, a better asterism. Listed as nonexistent in RNGC.
