Re: The "Other" Double-Double in Lyra

CESD,
I took a look at Struve 2470/2474 this evening with my 15x70's on a p-gram mount. The "other" double-double was easy to find using your chart. I could *almost* split the easternmost pair (Stuve 2474) and could definitely see an elongation at about PA 270°. I couldn't make out any elongation for Struve 2470. The seeing may have been a factor--I took a look at M57 before I looked at the doubles and The Ring kept popping in and out of view. Maybe next time the seeing will be better. 
Thanks,
