Hi Alvin,

great stuff, you are right. Thanks to you, Steve, Paul, Bill, Mark and Jeff.

Lots of the objects (particularly those from Steve list) are well-known things, which I also tried to observe and draw. For example I tried all Abells and yes, I had the luck to see M 81 with the naked eye.

But I am particular interested in your fantastic compilation of the Local Group. In a little project (not online) I tried to observe as much members I could see.
So I tried And 1,2,3,4,6 and 7 with 16" under nearly perfect skies. I could only detect And 2 and with uncertainly And 4. Which experience do you made with the And companions?
Also I am very interested in your observation of UGCA 86 and 92 which I also tried but without success.

Thanks for the tip for Leo T, I did not know it at all...do you have experience with it?

clear skies, Uwe
