In order to calibrate the Strömvil Photometric System, proposed by V. Straižys et al., Baltic Astronomy, 5, 83, 1996, the first run of the photoelectric observations was carried out by using a new two-channel photometer. The observations were done in February-April, 2000 with the 60" telescope of Steward Observatory on Mt. Lemmon. About 200 stars (mostly with well defined distances from the Hipparcos mission and knowm effective temperatures) of various spectral and luminosity classes were observed with the purpose to test the classification possibilities and to calibrate the new system. Another part of our observations included more than 100 stars in the standard areas for CCD photometry, proposed by A. G. D. Philip et al., Baltic Astronomy, 5, 445, 1996. They include open clusters M67 and M37, globular clusters M3 and M92 and some other fields, where CCD observations in the Strömvil photometric system have been obtained earlier.
