Abstract:
  We searched the CCD/Transit Instrument (CTI) survey databases for RR
  Lyrae variable stars.  The CTI images a strip of the sky with a narrow
  spread of declination over all right ascensions.  The resulting survey
  area covers a large range of both Galactic latitude and longitude,
  amounting to approximately 50 deg^2.  We detected a total of 42 RR
  Lyrae stars to a faint limiting magnitude of V = 19.  Thirty-four of
  these RR Lyae stars are newly discovered.

Notes for file: table3.dat
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Star:
  Number assigned to star in Table 1 of the original paper.  When
  this field is not blank, all other fields are blank.  The lines
  following a star number correspond to observational data for that
  star number, up until the next time the star number field is not
  blank.

HJD:
  Heliocentric Julian Date of observation minus 2440000 days.
  Before JD 2449000 corresponds to CTI data, while after JD 2449000
  corresponds to Capilla Peak data.

V:
  Instumental V magnitude of observation.  Capilla Peak data has
  been transformed to CTI instrumental magnitudes.
