[vsnet-alert 425] fading of CH Cyg

   Several observers have been reporting an exceptional fading of the
symbiotic variable CH Cyg.  Current observations (vsnet-obs observations)
indicate the object at around mv~9.7, which is probably the faintest
recorded magnitude since the discovery of this long-known variable star.
