Looks like the shallowest slope is between 11h and 15h, where one fourth of the 
NGC objects occupy one sixth of the R.A.  That band contains many of the 
galaxies in Ursa Major, Coma, Canes Venatici, and Virgo.  The Supergalactic 
Plane contains many of the nearby galaxies that were bright enough to appear in 
the NGC.

The steepest slope is between 19h and 22h, and it includes the dull part of the 
sky in Capricornus and Aquarius.  But it also includes Cygnus.  The NGC is a 
catalog of mainly galaxies, though.
