* SN at least 1 magnitude brighter than Skiff's 14.80 star.  USNO
magnitudes are at least one mag too faint compared to this star and
other V sequences nearby.  GSC mags seem better, perhaps 0.2 - 0.4 mag
too bright.  GSC 0614-0672 (mag 13.0) and GSC 0614-0416 (mag 13.4)
appear to bracket the SN in brightness.  I've averaged estimates made
with these two stars and Skiff's 14.80 star to derive a rough estimate
(the SN's visual magnitude could be anywhere from 13.4 - 13.8).

Instrument: 50.5cm f/5 L
