A photon-counting photometer has been used to observe BL Lac objects and optically violently variable (OVV) quasars. The development, construction, and performance of the photometer are discussed and the photometer configuration is illustrated. The observations were made on five nights in September 1986 using a 1-m telescope. Results are presented for observations of seven OVV objects and the star Chi Persei. No statistically significant variation were detected in the sources on timescales ranging from 0.1 sec to 5 days.
