After possible optical detection of transient reported by Tasmania
University I=B4ve checked my images and verified that it was there. As =
my
image scale was small I thought was a USNO star but, after astrometry
I=B4ve confirmed the observation as follows

    Possible transient was near USNO A 0525-11776445 Mag 19.9B 17.8R RA
09 29 20.010 Dec -31 22 57.38

    Astrometry and Photometry obtained from the image available in my
site at http://intermega.globo.com/cacella/novasgrp1.htm
