My only obseration of this object: Date 12/8/01 from Flat Iron at 1940 with an O-III filter. seeing 6 Trans 8 Meade 8" f/6 at 71x Noted as very small very blueish in color, in same field as two bright stars. Noted as round and consistantly bright throughout. Mind you it was probably still twilight & the seeing wasn't all that great. Sounds like it'll have to be put on the list to reobserve.

Hey all, Started on the SAC Urban list last nite, and one of the objects were NGC7662. Not a difficult object, and the seeing was decent (about 8/10, I only wish I could've stayed up late enough for Saturn and Jupiter.). At 240x, after many looks and re-looks, I was pretty sure I saw some annularity, and sketched it as such. Can I get some confirmation about this? I've seen this object only a couple of times, and this was the first time I suspected the ring structure.
