Hi CBAers, Nov. 20, 1996.
Some very fine data on PX And = And 1 appearing on my computer screen
many mornings! A full newsletter will be ready in just a few days, but
in the meantime I wanted everyone to know that this star has been an
absolute winner. Negative superhumps, wobble periods, fine eclipses.
I hope you'll follow it into its deepest lair and drag every last
secret out of it. The observing season is getting kinda late, so I
wanted to clue you on this ASAP.
We like the bright comparison star 3 arcmin north of the variable.
The star is a bit faint, around 15.3 I think, so it's tough for the
smallest-telescope observers out there. FY Per and RW Tri would be
better targets for the smallest scopes and lesser-quality nights.
