V1504 Cyg

Cc: Mr. Kunjaya

Dear Taichi,   
 
Thank you for the recent messages on V1504 Cyg, and  your  attempt 
to confirm my outburst observation. Apparently, the outburst was a 
very short lived one (< 1.5 or 2d) - as was also the case with the  
recent outburst of  TT Boo -,  and  certainly not a superoutburst.  
I made a negative observation of V1504 Cyg myself, last night (see  
details below).  In  order  to  get visual confirmation of similar  
events in the future, I have distributed the chart of V1504 Cyg to  
a number of experienced observers with large telescopes (Gary Poy- 
ner, Lasse Jensen).  I hope  we  will be more successful on a next  
occasion. 
 
One last question : you kindly supplied me the telephone number of  
the  Ouda  observatory.  For  which interesting cataclysmics,  and  
under what conditions, can it be reached ? When would you appreci- 
ate a phone call instead of an internet alert  message ?   Is  the  
observatory permanently staffed (if not, between which hours  -UT-  
is it) ? 
 
Could both of you please include me on your internet mailing list, 
as to reduce message passing costs between Paul Van  Cauteren  and  
myself. 
 
Regards, 
Tonny Vanmunster
