Hi Bob & All,
I think the show-piece multiple star is Mu Lupi (HJ4753).
HJ 4753
RA: 15h 18m 32.0s Dec: -47° 52' 30"
Components:
Mags: 4.3 / 4.4
Spect: B8V
# Obs: 46
Obs Dates: 1836 / 1996

Here are my notes on a night of pretty good seeing way back on 19th April 1998 using 25cm at x276:
"Mags 5.1, 5.2 and 7.3 Sep 1.3" and 23". PA 136. This is a wonderful show-piece ***. Spanking !!. AB are very close est 0.8 -0.9", almost = mags in PA 135, they point straight at C which is about 20"distant, 2 mags fainter in PA 140. Gorgeous. All white.
Best,
L.
