DO Dra 1996-03-01.920 15.0 : -------------------------------------------- Jochen Pietz jpietz@astro.uni-bonn.de http://aibn55.astro.uni-bonn.de:8000/~jpietz

Dear Colleagues,
Eric Broens, Mol, Belgium reports a brightening of DO Dra, which I have just been able to confirm. Our observations are as follows :
1996 Mar 11.885 UT, 14.6 (E. Broens, 0.35-m refl., seq: AAVSO);
Mar 11.897 UT, 14.6 (T. Vanmunster, 0.35-m refl., seq: AAVSO);
Both observations were made under clear but extremely cold skies.
Please monitor this object closely as to see how it further develops.
Best regards,
Tonny Vanmunster
