I've heard a bit about this double star challenge, but its always referred to as The Double Double......Can anyone give me the correct name(s)

hi mate

It's Epsilon Lyrae just left and down a bit from Vega. Put Vega centred in your optical finder and you'll see two stars close together about half the field width from Vega. that's it. when viewed with magnification between 50-100x each star splits again.

Hi, if you draw a line from Lyra to make a sort of triangle.

Good luck
