Abstract
Extensive photoelectric photometry was carried out at Szeged Observatory using the 0.4-m Cassegrain-type telescope with an SSP-5A photometer during 1994Ð1997. We have observed mainly pulsating stars (Cepheids, δ Scuti- type variables), although eclipsing binaries have been observed as well. As the observatory lies in a moderately light-polluted environment, we outline a possible way that small observatories can pursue scientific projects using UBV and uvby photometry.
