We have obtained an average of 5.7 radial velocities for 146 northern stars of types F and G (all luminosity classes) listed in 'A Supplement to the Bright Star Catalogue' as having no previously known radial velocity measures. Those were obtained with charge coupled devices (CCDs) and a cross-correlation technique; the intrinsic velocity accuracy, based on stars of apparently constant velocity, is probably less than +/- 0.3 km/s per mean. Of those stars 14% are newly discovered SB2 stars. The prevelance of rapid profile variations (in minutes or hours) in most of the broad-lined F-type stars makes it difficult to obtain accurate measures for them.
