[vsnet-alert 246] AK Cnc



Dear Colleagues,

Bill Worraker (Didcot, UK) has reported an outburst of AK Cnc, which
is monitored as part of the TA/BAA Recurrent Objects Programme.
Confirmation is required.

     Oct 05.186 UT    mv=13.2        Worraker, 26cm  Seq. TA


The last recorded outburst of this suspected TOAD occurred on May 03 
1995 (Szentasko, York, Bortle) where it reached mag 14.0.


I have also received an unconfirmed report that BC UMa may be in 
outburst.  I didn't get around to checking the field this morning,
and as it is unlikely that I'll get two clear nights in succession
can someone take a look please?


Regards,
Gary Poyner
