I will be checking these tonight. My observing log shows that I resolved both I9 and HJ3997 some 25 years ago. Time for another look!
Last night was the reward for setting up each night for the past week. For 4 nights running I have been foiled - it rained on the scope on one night after setting up in clear skies, but last night was the jackpot.
Never seen Sirius companion so well and at only 185X, easy six stars in the trapezium, a -8 fireball from south to east around 2145, Looking forward to repeat performance tonight.
