(cba:news) OT_J130030.3+115101 superoutburst continues

[Joe Patterson]

Dear CBAers,

This star is poorly situated in the sky, but it's the 
first-observed-by-humans outburst, which adds interest... and at 13-14 
mag is a solid object on CBA radar screens.  It's a good target while 
waiting for VY Aqr to rise.

No one observer can get satisfactorily long runs on this star, but we 
should be able to splice 'em together over a range of longitudes - so 
that at least the basic period-finding issues are clarified.

The official and useful name, I suppose, is SDSS J130030.33+115101.2.
The attached reference (nesssi) gives a chart that should allow you to
find the star.
