"Round" in catalogues

[Skipjack]

Hi double-splitters. Checking out the vol.1 Double Stars, from Webb Society. In the catalogue part some double stars has a "round" in the column for p.a. and sep. What does Round mean here? Tnx.

Hi Skipjack

I have this book and I believe the target star appeared round so split or elongation was seen

Hi, tnx yr reply - but I must admit I am not really sure how you mean. You mean round as in Airy disc? It doesn't make any sense in the context to me. If a split or elongation was seen it makes more sense to actually use PA and SEP?

Ian,

I'm afraid your reply confuses me, too. Did you mean to write that NO split or elongation was seen? If so, then that makes sense.

Cheers.

Hi 

The word no is missing

Round means no split or elongation

Thought so. It makes sense now. Thank you.

Oh! Never even realized there by mistake might be a word left out! It all makes sense now :-) Thanks to both of you!
