R. Abstract Equatorial coordinates for Uranus, Neptune, several minor planets, and the Jovian satellites were measured between 1976 and 1980. All observations were made with the yellow lens of the 0.51 m Carnegie double astrograph for the purpose of refining the predictions of stellar occultations. After 1977 the astrometric reduction program for equatorial coordinates included the option for precorrection of measurements for higher order terms, and other than Jupiter II, positions of Jovian satellites for 1980 December 09.56840 and 12.56285 were made by means of manual and automatic machine measurements.
