We have obtained some 15 CCD spectra at different orbital phases for each of the SBl systems HD193928 (WN6), HD197406 (WN7), and CQ Cep (WN7), in an attempt to detect the companion, determine its orbit and estimate the masses. The wavelength range of the spectra is λλ3600 - 4200Å, with 1.4Å/pixel and < S/N > ≈ 100/pixel. We compare the best emission-line (N IV λ4058Å) with the best absorption-line (H9 λ3835Å).
