Binary stars? #7

I wonder whether any of the stars that show signs of bi-modality in the MCMC photometry fits are actually binaries... cross-check the following with the AO observations:

201367065 201393098 201445392 (not clear bi-modality, but funky-looking) 201546283 201569483 201596316 201855371 (*if this is a binary, I love it.) 201929294 (ditto)

Of these--- 201367065 is clear. This is the Crossfield+ system, and they have AO. 201929294 is the giant according to Huber (via reduced PM), 201546283 is a binary from Bowler, and the rest we don't have AO data for.
