IC 972 planetary nebula

Hi all, got this one on the 27th April, with 6 x 10 minute exposures at ISO 1000 with Astro 40D and 14" LX200 at F6.3 . Its size is 0.9' in diameter, magnitude = 13.9, in the constellation of Virgo. The Sky 6 program shows another planetary, PLN 326+42.1 less than 2' seperation from this one.It is listed as magnitude 14.9 and size 0.7' diameter, so should have shown up with some trace. I have noticed this before with this program showing 2 planetary nebula close together, but have never been able to image the second. Also a google search has not shown the second on other images.
