The radial velocities of hundreds of late-type stars were monitored for several years. The typical precision for a single measurement can be better that 500 m/s. Five main samples of stars have been observed extensively; two-dozen nearby early M dwarfs together with an equal number of comparison stars, 250 stars in a magnitude-limited sample at the north Galactic pole, a dozen radial-velocity standard stars, 100 stars in the old open cluster M 67, and 1500 dwarfs in a survey of proper-motion stars. In this paper, low-amplitude orbital solutions for some of the stars in these samples are presented.
