Fig 1. USNO 'B' Magnitude Error f(Magnitude)
Red = USNO - Calibrated
Yellow = Best Fit: Y = +0.44 -0.056 * B_cal
Y vertical Tick = 0.1 magnitude
Offset for Magnitude 14.0 'B' = -0.34
Error cancels for Magnitude 8.0

Fig 2. USNO 'R' Magnitude Error f(Magnitude)
Red = USNO - Calibrated
Yellow = Best Fit: Y = +1.91 -0.127 * R_cal
Y vertical Tick = 0.1 magnitude
Offset for Magnitude 14.0 'R' = +0.14
Error cancels for Magnitude 15.1
