    Dear CBAers,
    
    Tonny just sent out a message on this guy, a very short period affair!
    Let's do it - all hemispheres, longitudes, apertures
    
    Coords below - Jonathan, can you make a chart?
    
      1RXS J232953.9+062814 (RA = 23h29m54s.30, Dec = +06d28'10".9)
    Probably about 13-14  mag right now (wild guess)
    
    
    Joe
    
    Looks like a real winner - the other fall stars can wait a bit!
