Steve's Notes

===== NGC 3219 18" (4/10/04): very faint, small, slightly elongated 0.5'x0.4', weak concentration. Situated in the middle of a thin triangle of mag 11-12 stars with a 1.6' pair of mag 11.5/12 stars ~2.5' W and a mag 11 star 3' E. Forms a close pair with MCG +07-21-049 1.8' NW, which was not seen with certainty. Located 9.5' NE of mag 8.8 SAO 62000.
