Hi CBAers,

I've persuaded Matt Wood (Texas A&M - Commerce) to join me with the 
duties of "heading" (with Jonathan's help, and maybe Enrique's) the CBA. 
  Matt is very experienced with CVs, mostly from the theory side but 
plenty familiar with observation as well.  I think he's been observing 
DQ Her for quite a few years.  So your data will go to the three of us, 
at least - as well as in the archive which anyone can access (and AAVSO 
for that matter).

I'm still banging the drums for V1674 Her, despite faintness (18) and a 
poor sky position.  The pulse period continues to shorten, though at a 
lower rate... and a good value for it now will make it easier to bridge 
the gap until February, when Hercules comes back.  Same goes for DQ Her, 
though it has no significant off-season uncertainty like V1674 Her.

IM Nor and T Pyx are excellent choices now, to try to track their 
meteoric-at-last-sight period changes.

That leaves late-night northern objects - of that, later.
