I'm glad John T clarified the ID for this star. A current "best"
position is from the 2MASS catalogue: 15 56 54.463 +21 07 18.85 (2000),
uncertainty ~0".2, epoch about 1998. Note that position from USNO-A2.0
is somewhat skewed due to the near companion, but the position in GSC-2.2
seems to be okay (where it is given as photo-blue mag. 18.1). For what
it's worth, the 2MASS J-K color is 0.9 (fairly red).
