Note (1): Some tables contains also photometry of comparison stars
Note (2): Instruments code as follows:
  E = Observations made with single-channel UBV photometers at the 50-cm Danish
      Cassegrain telescope or the ESO 50-cm Cassegrain telescope at the
      European Southern Observatory. The magnitudes and colour indices were
      reduced to the UBV system by means of the best values of the southern
      E-region standard stars available at the time. One observation of z Gem
      with each instrument is included here.
  K = A single-channel UBV photometer attached to the 40-cm Cassegrain telescope
      at the Kvistaberg Observatory, the northern observing station of the
      Uppsala Observatory. The observations were reduced to the UBV system by
      means of the standard stars published by Oja (1996BaltA...5..103O).
  L = Measurementsmade with the Swedish Academy of Sciences 60-cm Cassegrain
      telescope located at El Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos on La
      Palma, belonging to El Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias. During the
      1988 observations a UBV photometer, constructed at the Stockholm
      Observatory, using a rotating filter-wheel was utilized. The wheel
      stopped at every pre-selected filter position during an interval of time
      approximately inversely proportional to the count rate in that position.
      In 1991-1995 the telescope was equipped with another single-channel UBV
      photometer, also built at the Stockholm Observatory. All measurements
      have been reduced to the UBV system by means of the standard stars
      published by Oja (1996BaltA...5..103O).
  N = Measurements made with the Turku Observatory simultaneous five-colour
      photo-polarimeter at the 2.5-m Nordic Optical telescope located at El
      Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos on La Palma. Only one measurement
      of UU Cnc (together with its standards) is included here.
  S = A simultaneous UBV three-colour photometer used with the 1-m
      Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope at the Kvistaberg Observatory. All
      observations were reduced to the UBV system by means of the standard
      stars listed by Oja (1996BaltA...5..103O).
  U = A single-channel BV photometer attached to the 33-cm photographic tube of
      the Uppsala double refractor. The observations, originally reduced by the
      standard values given by Haggkvist and Oja (1969ArA.....5..303H), were
      reduced to the BV system by correcting the original results by DV=-0.003,
      D(B-V)=+0.005, the corrections having been derived from a comparison of
      the list mentioned above and that published by Oja (1996BaltA...5..103O).
      Only a UMi and z Gem were measured with the Uppsala refractor.
Note (3): Remarks as follows:
   R  = differential measurement, referred to the local standard(s) only
   RV = the magnitude V has been referred to the local standard(s) only
   U  = the whole measurement is more uncertain than normal measurements,
         generally due to weather problems, sometimes aurora borealis
   UV = the magnitude V is more uncertain than usual (weather problems)
   UU = the U-B colour index is more uncertain than usual, generally because
         of faint U and/or bright sky
