The primary and secondary are so similar that I cannot tell which is which; same size, magnitude and color. Going to include both possible PA's. Very wide split.

Again, similar in size, magnitude and color. The separation is very small this time and I was just able to get a full split.

Variable, all three are similar in color and mag with the closer sibling a little less bright.
