Yes, I'm looking for the Mitchell galaxies.

Over the weekend, I observed a couple galaxies that had no designation at all listed in GUIDE (all settings turned on) with the DSS images overlaid. I found out from a friend using MegaStar that they had MAC id's. Just thought it would be GREAT if we could get a MAC catalog on GUIDE to identify those little buggers.
