In order to test whether entrance channel effects influence the production of superdeformed nuclei, the yields of the discrete superdeformed band in /sup 152/Dy are compared for three projectile-target combinations. No evidence for entrance channel effects is found. Rather, the population of this band seems to be determined by the excitation energy and maximum angular momentum brought in by each reaction.
