Dear Colleagues,
we are performing time-resolved CCD photometry on this 
star. A quick check gives it at R=16.2 (unfiltered), so the 
star is still at its maximum.

We are working with the 0.8m, f/8 reflector at Campocatino 
Astronomical Observatory (Italy). Our plans are to 
contuinue this run for about 3 hours. So, wheater 
permitting, we will have a light curve to share with the 
VSNET Collaboration Team.


Regards,
Gianluca Masi, Ugo Tagliaferri.


PS: We report the accurate astrometry for this star:

RA= 19h24m38.25s  Decl= +59d41'46.5" (J2000.0); 83 
reference stars where used from USNO A2.0 (mean residuals = 
0.25"). In addition, here is the magnitude of the star, in 
the VSNET format:

DRAKL    20020615.8514  162Rc   Masi, Tagliaferri
