11x80: “Very large, coarse cluster, large and small stars over an area 1.2° across (larger than U2 indicates). More like a chance association, but it is the most ‘dense’ field for a 12° circle around here. Sixteen stars down to 9th magnitude counted here; several stars together in 2s.” (urban; seeing good; transparency below average; dew) [AS]
