The R.A. system KSV [1] has been used in the USSR Time Service for observations with small transit instruments since 1970. Some methodological errors were made when creating the KSV [2] and the use of the proper motion system, distorted with the position errors of GC and KSV [3], make it necessary to improve the KSV system. Work on the creation of a new system KSV-2 was organized for this purpose. The catalogue included about 0.3 million computer-readable observations with small transit instruments of the USSR Time Service with mean standard deviations σ = 11 sec δ ms.
