1. According to VSX, variability of GSC 0839-00170 was reported in 2013 by Alexandr Ditkovsky (VS-COMPAS project), based on ROTSE-I/NSVS data. VSX suggests type RRC with Blazhko effect, the listed light elements are: HJD(max) = 2453362.802 + 0.417517×E. Based on the data from ROTSE-I/NSVS, ASAS-3 and Catalina Surveys, it is actually a double-mode RR Lyrae star, type RR(B), with the light elements tabulated below.

ModeFrequency, c/d Semi-amplitude, mag Period, days Epoch, JD
f1 2.395101 0.150 (CV, CSS, MLS), 0.172 (V, ASAS), 0.097 (R, NSVS) 0.417519 2455000.747
f0 1.785472 0.080 (CV, CSS, MLS), 0.081 (V, ASAS), 0.061 (R, NSVS) 0.560076 2455000.521
f1 + f0 4.180515 0.040 (CV, CSS, MLS) 0.239205 2455000.638
f1 – f0 0.609611 0.021 (CV, CSS, MLS) 1.64039 2455001.24

The period ratio of the first-overtone and fundamental modes is P1/P0 = 0.7455. J–K = 0.234 (2MASS), B–V = 0.344 (APASS). Combined brightness of two stars, GSC 0839-00170 (= var) and GSC 0839-00205, was measured in NSVS, the amplitudes are somewhat underestimated.

2. Variability of USNO-A2.0 0900-06813517 was discovered by Alexandr Ditkovsky from VS-COMPAS project in 2012, based on ROTSE-I/NSVS data. The AAVSO Variable Star Index suggests type RRC with Blazhko effect, the listed light elements are: HJD(max) = 2452732.721 + 0.348758×E. Based on data from Catalina Surveys, it is actually a double-mode RR Lyrae star, type RR(B), with the light elements tabulated below.

ModeFrequency, c/d Semi-amplitude, CV mag Period, days Epoch, JD
f1 2.867342 0.169 0.348755 2455000.680
f0 2.130992 0.092 0.469265 2455000.701
f1 + f0 4.998276 0.037 0.200069 2455000.673

The period ratio of the first-overtone and fundamental modes is P1/P0 = 0.7432. J–K = 0.238 (2MASS), B–V = 0.265 (APASS). The ROTSE data with photometric correction flags were kept for the analysis.

3. The variability of USNO-A2.0 0750-08069398 was reported by Keller et al. (2008; Id. 109253.24). The variable was classified as an RR: star without light elements. Based on Catalina Surveys data, it is actually a double-mode RR Lyrae star, type RR(B), with the light elements tabulated below.

ModeFrequency, c/d Semi-amplitude, CV mag Period, days Epoch, JD
f1 2.866159 0.144 0.348899 2454800.775
f0 2.130456 0.121 0.469383 2454800.730

The period ratio of the first-overtone and fundamental modes is P1/P0 = 0.7433. J–H = 0.280 (2MASS).

4. The variability of V1360 Cen was discovered by Hoffmeister (1963). The variable is listed in the GCVS (Samus et al. 2007–2013) as an RR Lyrae star, type RRC, with the light elements: JD(max) = 2452498.53 + 0.344249×E. Based data from 1SWASP, ASAS-3 and Catalina Surveys, it is actually a double-mode RR Lyrae star, type RR(B), with the light elements tabulated below.

ModeFrequency, c/d Semi-amplitude, mag Period, days Epoch, JD
f1 2.904798 0.164 (CV, SSS), 0.200 (WASP), 0.194 (V, ASAS) 0.344258 2454200.540
f0 2.159491 0.100 (CV, SSS), 0.132 (WASP), 0.115 (V, ASAS) 0.463072 2454200.806
f1 + f0 5.06429 0.045 (CV, SSS), 0.055 (WASP), 0.048 (V, ASAS) 0.197461 2454200.623
f1 – f0 0.745323 0.028 (CV, SSS), 0.031 (WASP) 1.34170 2454200.90
2f1 + f0 7.96902 0.019 (WASP) 0.125486 2454200.579

The period ratio of the first-overtone and fundamental modes is P1/P0 = 0.7434. J–K = 0.200 (2MASS); B–V = 0.355 (APASS). When plotting the phased light curves for the identified frequencies, f1 and f0, we also subtracted variations of the mean brightness in the 1SWASP data, probably of instrumental origin (corresponding to the frequency f = 1 in the power spectra). All the observations from the SuperWASP with the error > 0.m05 were rejected.

5. Variability of GSC 0925-00503 was discovered by Alexandr Ditkovsky from VS-COMPAS project in 2012, based on ROTSE-I/NSVS data. The AAVSO Variable Star Index suggests type RRC with Blazhko effect, the listed light elements are: HJD(max) = 2454663.561 + 0.41189×E. Based on the data from ROTSE-I/NSVS, ASAS-3 and Catalina Surveys, it is actually a double-mode RR Lyrae star, type RR(B), with the light elements tabulated below.

ModeFrequency, c/d Semi-amplitude, mag Period, days Epoch, JD
f1 2.427833 0.150 (CV, CSS), 0.208 (V, ASAS), 0.123 (R, NSVS) 0.411890 2455000.885

f1 + f0 4.23824 0.041 (CV, CSS) 0.235947 2455000.702
f1 – f0 0.617452 0.035 (CV, CSS) 1.61956 2455000.74

The period ratio of the first-overtone and fundamental modes is P1/P0 = 0.7457. J–K = 0.214 (2MASS); B–V = 0.217 (APASS). Combined brightness of two stars, GSC 0925-00503=var and GSC 0925-00363, was measured in the NSVS, the tabulated amplitudes are somewhat underestimated.

6. The variability of USNO-A2.0 0675-14795162 was reported by Keller et al. (2008; Id. 111137.2696). The variable was classified as an RR: star without light elements. Based on Catalina Surveys data, it is actually a double-mode RR Lyrae star, type RR(B), with the light elements tabulated below.
