Here are a few stars I found while working on cloud elimination. So far when I eliminate clouds I also eliminate the interesting stars. A few more runs should tell me if the present method does any good. In any case here are a few stars (transcribed by hand so beware) that I am using to test good guys getting lost. They should all be in pretty good view. But what do I know, I never look at the sky 'cause I can't see much. There is no tass number because it is different with each run as I eliminate frames with the cloud detection.

Hmmmm! Only six obvious stars from 24 frame sets. This is less than one a night of observation. Sigh!
One gets lots more in frames looking at the Milky Way. So that is where most searches have been. If there is anything lurking out in the unobserved void, we may find it.

Bright xray source. Hmmm, mentioned once before? Near open cluster NGC 6633. None checked in SIMBAD yet for bib refs.
