Simultaneous observations of NGC 4151 and UGC 3374 show that ICCF-Cut photometric Hα light curves and lags match spectroscopic results within uncertainties, with minor discrepancies attributed to He I contamination that can be corrected.
Reverberation lags in Mrk 817 range 3-8 days, exceed thin-disk models by factors of 3-6, follow a λ^{4/3} trend with the ICCF method, and vary by up to a factor of 2 between epochs.
