Re: (cba:news) (cba:chat) CR Boo faint (Joe Patterson) [2017-05-30T16:42:16Z]

16.0 isn't quite DefCon 5, but it's at least DefCon 3.  I've only 
personally seen it once that faint in a few hundred hours of observing,
and I only had a spectrograph on the telescope that night.  Good (at 
least) target for all known hemispheres.

And for spectroscopy too, if those people are reading.
