Data outside the survey area
There are tsObj files in DR3 which have no or few primary objects
in the target version because they lie outside the 
lambda limits in a number of stripes (they have been made primary in the
best version).  As a consequence, querying the
target photometry catalogs for primary objects in this
part of the sky will not return any objects, although they do exist in
the database. 
Here is the list of fields which have no or few
primary objects in target. 
stripe 10:
    run   fields
    1239  11-33
    756   41-63
    745   534-609
    752   636-711
stripe 12:
    run   fields
    2125  13-32
    2126  11-29
stripe 34:
    run   fields
    2131  17-34
    2137  47-64
stripe 35:
    run   fields
    2328  168-179
    2305  168-180
stripe 36:
    run   fields
    2248  263-274
    2335  136-148
stripe 37:
    run   fields
    1350  20-23
    1402  11-14
Another thing to watch out for is that the mu limits in the
tsChunk*.par files will therefore extend beyond the survey lambda
limits. A consequence is that the mask csv's, which use these
mu limits, will extend beyond the lambda limits as well.
