at 2100L, there were three 11th mag stars within 3 arcmin from the
nucleus (based on MPCORB elements). They formed an approx isosceles
triangle, with two legs of 4 arcmin, and the other being about 5.5.
I did not observe the comet with a telescope back then, so I can't
say if these stars had anything to do with your triple
nucleus. ...............sam
