PU Per observation from Gary Billings Dear Colleagues, We have received a 4-hour time-series obseravation on Nov. 2 from Gary Billings. The data show a rather rapid linear fading, with 0.1-mag fluctuations. Judging from the behavior up to now and the short-term variations, the outburst may be a normal outburst (as reported in IBVS 4260), or a precursor outburst of an expected superoutburst. The data retrieval at Kyoto and other stations has been interrupted by an electric power outage and a network disconnection. I hope we will be able to resume analyzing these data in due time.
