In this paper, I describe briefly the instrument and the reduction system we have used for obtaining ultraviolet magnitudes and present some information concerning the sky areas and types of stars we have observed. I shall also comment on our use of catalogs in machine-accessible form and make suggestions concerning the most useful identifications to be assigned to observed objects, particularly those in the southern hemisphere.
